Default Time to get ready for ... UKRAINIAN HALOWEEN!!!!

Lots of us celebrate Ukrainian Christmas, usually January 7th.

So WHY NOT UKRAINIAN HALOWEEN!!!

Every year on November 1 I buy all kinds of candy, and then I sit at the door waiting for kids to come, and no one comes?

Then I have to eat all the candy myself. It is so lonely!!

Help me get this new Holiday going, sort of...

Drewski

Sounds like the Insulin Run Holiday in the making Drewski....better to just give out double handfuls tonight. Let some other parent pay the dentist.

I think that this is a great idea except people should give out perogies, cabbage rolls and kielbasa. Parents can give their kids pots to collect their goodies and help them sort it all when they come home. It would probably be better to have them eat that stuff rather than get them all jazzed up on sugar before going to bed.

What would kids dress up like and what would people put in their window to let them know that they are giving out Ukrainian goodies?

Well then you need to have to be sure to be playing The Kubasonics especially Baba Rolls Her Own
