The history behind Halloween 😱

By jujupage1 -
Hi guys,

Welcome back to my blog! Today I am going to be talking about the history behind Halloween. Before I get onto this blog post, please make sure you subscribe to get all the latest and share this blog post with your friends. Today's shout out goes to Sananas on YouTube. She's a French beauty YouTuber. Her videos are especially good for people who would like to learn French because it's really easy to understand. Now let's get onto the blog post.

Halloween dates back to the ancient Celtic festival called Samhain.  It is thought that some of our modern day costumes came from the Celts. Samhain marked the end of the harvest and the start of winter 'the darker half'. The wall between our world and the other world thinned. It was thought that through this, spirits and beings would be more capable of entering our world. It was thought that these spirits would help the livestock through the winter. Offerings of food and drink were also given to these spirits. It is hoped that these spirits return on the night before the 1st of November. We call this Halloween.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN 😱

    Hi Juju, thanks for stopping at my blog. I don't post on the recipe blog anymore, but I am still active on my regular blog. This was interesting and you do a great job of writing! I'm not a big fan of Halloween. Our kids always went trick or treating, but I don't like some of the darker aspects of it. I'm more into pumpkins and the harvest side of things. :) I also read you post on what you eat in a day and really enjoyed it!
    Have a good day!

The individuals of the Holocaust: The victims and the perpetrators - Writing Wednesday

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post,  Recently, I got given the opportunity by my school to take part in the Lessons from Auschwitz Online Project, to further my understanding on the events that took place during the Holocaust. I was joined by over a hundred other sixth form students from across the UK and I found it quite amazing that so many young people, whether they already had knowledge on the Holocaust or not, had decided to get involved and educate themselves on such a raw and often confusing historical time period. However, whether selfishly or unselfishly, I decided to take part in this project set up by the Holocaust Educational Trust for myself. I am a big believer in educating and bettering yourself before taking the responsibility of preaching your truth to others, so although I already knew a lot about the Holocaust, I endeavoured to find out more so that I could pass on my valuable knowledge to you, in the hope that you can reciprocate the action for ot

Hello Jujubears and welcome to another blog post, Who doesn't love a bit of humour? I've recently been looking at Harry Hill's joke book which I got a couple of Christmas's ago.
