Thanksgiving first

She’s up early to start the Christmas decorations

He’s too late. The stores are already well stocked with Halloween candy.

“You call it joggin’, I call it runnin’ around.” – Mose Allison

Last year I had a few pieces of candy corn. The stuff was awful. I don’t know why I liked it as a kid.

You know it’s early when the pumpkin on the flag is yawning…

The Yawning Pumpkin. I Would avoid a bar named that during happy hour.

He’s too late anyway if the flag outside the house is any indication.

This would be his busy season.
