The Ever Expanding Chirstmas Season
this is my week 47 submission for the 2010 challenge from photochallenge.org
The Challenge Theme for week 45-48: SHIFTING SEASON
------------
When I was a kid (which some could say wasn't that long ago), Christmas season started promptly the day after Thanksgiving.
Now, it seems, that the Christmas season starts the day after Halloween. I went to Starbucks a day or two after Halloween and received this cup. (Yes, I've kept this in my house for 3 weeks now :) ). I used to complain about how retailers try to milk the consumer for an extra month of holiday shopping, but if this gets people to have the true spirit of the holidays for an extra month it can't be that bad.
Enjoy the extra month of merriment. Be kind to your fellowman, and try to keep the spirit year round.
