10/14/2019 SHOULD YOU BE A TRICK-OR-TREAT STOP THIS YEAR? 3 QUESTIONS THAT WILL GIVE YOU YOUR ANSWERRead NowAs you’ve probably guessed, Halloween and fall are my favorite times of the year. I love watching horror movies, playing with Halloween makeup, and watching the season change. One thing I also love to do is pass out candy to trick-or-treaters. One of my favorite YouTubers, Grav3yard Girl, passes out massive amounts of candy each year. I love watching her do her candy and prizes haul and her “assembling the goodie bags” video each and every year. But I’ve noticed that my neighborhood isn’t the best for trick-or-treating, which really stinks because I love to do it. So, to help you save money and time, I want to give you some things to think about when you start planning your Halloween night. 1: ARE THERE A LOT OF CHILDREN IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD?
2: DO YOU ENJOY HANDING OUT CANDY? This will free you up to relax or do something with your own family. Plus, kids can tell when you’re not really into it. It’s OK to take a year off. 3: DO YOU HAVE OTHER PLANS?SO, WHAT ARE YOU DOING THIS YEAR?It is as simple as that! I think a lot of us get weighed down by the societal convention of trick-or-treating and we decide to participate in something that either will cost us a ton of money for a ton of left overs, or will ultimately make our night less enjoyable.
Are you going to be handing out candy this year? Let me know in the comments! Aside from Christmas, Halloween is one of my favorite holidays to decorate for. It's funny because we don't get a lot of trick or treaters and not many people come over. I think that I personally like the spooky decor. So today, I want to tell you the three places I shop for Halloween decor that is cute or spooky at the right price! CHRISTMAS TREE SHOPS
A.C. MOOREOLD TIME POTTERY
WHERE DO YOU FIND THE BEST DEALS?You can find amazing deals at other places aside from these, but there usually has to be a sale going on. We bought the coolest dragon skeleton at JoAnn Fabrics, but there was a sale on at the time.
Tell me where I should look for awesome decor for Halloween! To kick off blogtober here on TheOpinionatedOne.com, I figured one of my first few posts should be about my October 2019 bucket list. Let's get into it: GO ON A HAY RIDE AND PICK PUMPKINS
DIY HALLOWEEN DECOR
HOST A HALLOWEEN PARTY
TRY NEW PRODUCTSMAKE SOMETHING NEWI love making food and desserts, but I also love challenging myself in the kitchen. I want to find a new food or dessert to try this month.
Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, and I would normally celebrate a bit differently than I am this year. So, this year, I have a bit of a different plan. Check out below for my Halloween plans and check out some of my dream Halloween plans after that. Without further ado, keep reading for more about my plans: THIS MORNINGBUT FIRST, COFFEETICK-OR-TREAT BAGS
The bags were left over from my Mother-in-Law's 50th birthday party several months ago. I made the tags with scrapbook paper. I also wrote some cute little punny saying on the inside of them. I hope all of my coworkers really liked them! THROUGHOUT THE DAYTAKE A WALK IN THE FALL AIRLISTEN TO MY FAVORITE TRUE CRIME YOUTUBE CHANNELS
I will also be catching up on scary stories and paranormal investigations from LoeyLane and Hailey Reese. I've linked their channel's URLs to their names, so click and check out some of their videos. Also, please subscribe to support them if you like their content. They are all fabulous and do such a good job with their research! THIS EVENINGI usually like to hand out candy to trick-or-treaters, but last year I only got two and bought a ton of candy that ended up going to waste. So this year, unfortunately, we've decided not to hand out candy. I'm hoping that we one day live in a place that has a ton of trick-or-treaters so we can do something nice for the local children! I'm talking Grav3yardgirl big! MAKE DINNER AND SNACKS
MINI MOVIE MARATHON
CONCLUSIONThose are the extent of our plans this Halloween. I promised I would talk a little bit about my dream Halloween plans. I would really like to one day throw a murder mystery Halloween party. However, if I do this, I want it to be big and really nice. I'm talking catered, in a nice place we rent out, etc.
I just love the idea of a murder mystery dinner party. It is fun and everyone gets fed! What are you doing this Halloween, or what have you done? Let me know in the comments below. This year, I decided to really challenge myself and do Blog-Tober, but I also decided to create my first-ever challenge for Twitter. I created a question or topic for each day of October so that myself and other bloggers could be festive on social media and our blogs.

Blog-tober has been such an amazing and rewarding experience. But, today's blog is one that normally happens each month on this blog: my monthly favorites, where I tell you what products and other things I loved this month. Check it out: ALMOND MILK | $3I love the almond milk because it is creamy and it's a lot better for me than traditional milk. I have been using the vanilla milk, but I may try unsweetened almond milk next time to see if I like it! HIGHLIGHTER | $5
OUR WORKPLACE CAT
NAIL POLISH REMOVER DISPENSER | $1
MY FAVORITE OCTOBER YOUTUBE CHANNELI've been in love with true crimes videos on YouTube and I've found one YouTuber that I absolutely love: Eleanor Neale. She basically does a ton of in-depth research on both solved and unsolved murders. She is also a makeup YouTuber, but I've actually only seen her true crime videos. I do think I'll eventually check out her makeup videos. If you're a fan of learning about crime stories, I suggest checking Eleanor Neale out on YouTube and subscribing to her channel! MY FAVORITE OCTOBER MOVIE
CONCLUSIONI'm sorry that this monthly favorites blog post hasn't been very long, but I haven't really had a lot of time this month to try new things thanks to the blog schedule and blogtober! I'm sure there will be many more things I can tell you about in November.

Ahhhh fall. There's nothing like lighting a candle, cuddling up on the couch, and enjoying a hot cup of coffee (or cocoa) after work! One of my favorite things about candles are their associations with the seasons. There are so many amazing candle scents that you need to put into your life this fall. Here they are: SANDALWOOD
APPLE CINNAMON
HAZELNUT CREAM
PUMPKIN SPICE
"LEAF" SCENTS
CONCLUSIONThere are so many great fall scents for candles, I think that these are my favorites. I also really like scents like marshmallow, but I don't know if the smell is strong enough to really permeate your home or apartment enough to give you the sense of all when you smell them. Do you have any suggestions for candles I should try this fall? If so, please leave them below!
