#L&SR’s #Wednesday’s Blog Challenge- Favorite Holiday of the Year and Why

Welcome to #L&SR’s #Wednesday’s Blog Challenge 5-6-20.  Favorite Holiday of the Year and Why. Wow, this one is easy.  Please have a seat, grab an iced tea or lemonade out of the cooler. Be sure and grab a chocolate chip cookie. Lets get started with My favorite Holiday of the Year and Why.

Halloween, All Hallows Eve, Samhain (Gaelic ) is my favorite holiday.  No expectations of gifts, outside of candy,  of course. What other time can you dress up and be whoever and whatever you want to be and no one give you a second look.  LOL  I love decorating our house for Halloween. Lots of pumpkins, witches, scary creatures and sounds. Early in the evening,  I have the fog machine  on low, dressed up like a vampiress, I sit on the porch handing out candy.  Later in the evening, we turn up the fog machine and jump out of the fog to scare the bejeebers out of the older trick or treaters. Keep in mind we’ve done this for years and the trick or treaters we get are kids of parents that trick or treated at our house years ago.  Probably dating myself, but we have fun. 

We’ve also had Halloween parties where we play How to Host A Murder Mystery Games, where everyone dresses up and assumes the identity of their character. Then with the clues the games provided we attempt to discover who is the killer.  In the middle of the game we serve dinner then return to the game to solve the murder. A fun time is had by all!

Hmmmm… maybe my dislike of reality is the reason I write Paranormal Romance/Mystery an escape from the ordinary world on most days.

So there you have it, Favorite Holiday of the Year and Why. I’d love to hear from you.  Please share your Favorite Holiday of the Year and why. List them in the comments below. 

Alas, I must return to my writing cave  where deadlines loom on a new WIP (very exciting and coming along very well) so let’s see what other authors list as their reasons.  L&SR

Speaking of Halloween, a little about A WITCH’S JOURNEY.

Pepper McKay comes from a long line of powerful witches. Unfortunately, magic brings her nothing but trouble. She learned the love of wildlife rescue and rehab from her Aunt Ashling. After graduating from college, Pepper works for Salem Wildlife Sanctuary and lives from paycheck to paycheck until she inherits the McKay property in Lobster Cove. With the family land and resources, she dares to dream of starting her own wildlife rescue and rehabilitation center.

Lathen Quartz, a former Navy SEAL turned handyman maintains the enchanted McKay property for the McKay estate. But someone is trying to steal the McKay magic. Lathen offers to help Pepper achieve her life-long dream of building a wildlife center. During the long hours spent together on the project, their mutual attraction can’t be denied. But each harbors a deep, dark secret. Will they overcome their demons and give love a chance?

A quick peek between the pages of A WITCH’S JOURNEY.

A Witch’s Journey – “I’m going to go check on Ember and Tonk at the mammal habitat. Won’t be long.” Pepper closed the door and sprinted down the path, doubled back and hid behind the greenhouse with a view of the porch. She sucked in a breath when the tarp moved and the bungee cord slipped off the bumper with a zing. A shadow creep out from under the tarp,it slunk to the stairs. A huge reddish wolf advanced snarling and leaped over the railing knocking the figure down the stairs then disappeared.

A WITCH’S HOLIDAY WEDDING is the second book in the series. By the end of the summer  book three, HIDDEN GYPSY MAGIC and book four, CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY MAGIC will be released.

Thanks for popping in. I really appreciate it. Next week, May 13, A Villain that I wish could be redeemed and why.  A tough one.  Do you have a villain that you wish could be redeemed and why?
