After almost 6 years of staying in Nizhny, i finally get to see that the locals do actually acknowledge this thing called H.a.l.l.o.w.e.e.n. More supermarkets and toy shops selling mask and costumes nowadays. Even babushkas (granny) start to sell pumpkins ( as in the whole pumpkin for carving) in the rinok. When i first came (in 2005), i was quite surprise not seeing these Russians dressing up for Halloween ( i remembered dressing up like a big tulip during my St Mungo days for Halloween). They're not like the British, where costume parties on Halloween night is almost always a must.
Our last Halloween as undergrads, we decided on having a wee bit of a dinner party. A potluck style spooky delish dinner including -
fingernails cookies
my spiderweb red velvet cake
pumpkin soup
smiley spaghetti bolognase
and many more!
well, last but not least.....
