Dead because it’s not the season, or just D-E-D dead?

I have to admit this thread got me in the mood for one of my favorite fall treats, so I picked up some kettle corn and candy corn when I was at Wal-Mart yesterday. Anybody here mixed the two into a bag? If not, I HIGHLY recommend it!
I don’t think I even got any candy corn this past Halloween.

Growing up in Northern Ireland, we were treated to the sweet smell of burning turnip every Halloween as Pumpkin’s essentially didn’t exist in Ireland when i was a nipper.
We always felt Gypped until I did some research and turnip lanterns were used traditionally.
Excerpt:
Jack O’lantern
"The turnip lantern is the festival light for Halloween and is the ancient symbol of a damned soul.
Pumpkin carving only came into being when people colonized America - we didn’t have them here. Thank goodness - ‘turnip lantern’ doesn’t have quite the same ring to it…
One story says that the Irish would carve out turnips or beets as lanterns to represent the souls of the dead hence the turnip lanterns. "
Anyway regardless pumpkin lantern seemed very fancy and we would’ve killed for one.
The tradition was to go 2 weeks before Halloween and right up until 2 night beforehand, but I remember going a month before and every night up until, covering every house in the town.
This is the rhyme we used to ring off at every door, and believe it or not 95% of the time we got money not candy:)! I remember making 10 quid a night when I was about 9.
Depending on the resident and how they greeted us, there was an alternate version where the last line went something like “Or we’ll put yer windies through”
great anticipation pics guys , i love to drive around at night during hallowen and see white sheet ghosts hanging from the trees in neighbors yards …awesome
