Thanksgiving is Coming Soon! Here are some festive Holiday Hunts Happening Now in Second Life- Ceciliarosalie Reporting…



Thanksgiving day is a national holiday celebrated primarily in the U.S and Canada as a day of giving thanks for the blessing of harvesting and of the preceding year. Although it is mostly referred as An American holiday there are several places around the globe which hold similar traditions and celebrations for the day. Thanksgiving day has its roots in religious and cultural  customs. Strange as it may seem there’s not a fixed date for this holiday and dates vary depending on the exact country separately.

Let’s have a closer look on these different dates

Canada: on the second Monday of October , U.S.: Thanksgiving, currently celebrated on the third Thursday of November, Norfolk Island: Thanksgiving is celebrated on the last Wednesday of November and in Germany is in early October, though German festival is influenced by Christian religion.

Most families follow traditions begun on the first Thanksgiving, but many have their own traditions that they follow each year. The best thing about Thanksgiving is spending time with family. Many people live far from their inmates and travel long distances by any means of transport to be with their loved ones. Thanksgiving is the busiest travel day of the year!


Traditional foods are a large part of Thanksgiving celebrations. Many families include the entire family in the food preparation. Traditional foods include turkey, stuffing, gravy, sweet potatoes, cornbread, mashed potatoes, and cranberry sauce. Many people serve pie for dessert at the end of the meal. Popular pie flavors are pumpkin, pecan, sweet potato, and apple.

Many generous folks use Thanksgiving as an opportunity to help the less fortunate. Some people volunteer to serve food at homeless shelters on Thanksgiving Day and others donate to shelters or participate in canned food drives.

The Wishbone Feature!!!

Some families include breaking the turkey's wishbone as part of their celebration. The wishbone is found attached to the breast meat in the turkey's chest. After the meat has been removed and the wishbone has had a chance to become dry and brittle, two people each take one end of the bone, make a wish, and pull. Whoever ends up with the larger part of the bone gets their wish!

But what happens in SL on Thanksgiving day?

Just like in RL avatar families are gathered feasting and celebrating Thanksgivings Day.
As for my dear shopping addicts…

Almost every shop operating on the grid announces sales and great deals on that special Day. There are also some great hunts which are worth mentioning.


Dirty Turkey 5.0
Jerky Turkey Hunt 4
Golden Thanksgiving
Gobble Gobble Hunt
Events




Keep in mind that more parties and events always come up at the last minute. ;)

Best Wishes

Summer Fashion and Fun Hunts for Couples in Second Life- Ccoursey Reporting...


It's always cute to mix and match with someone.  So dare your man to try to match you this summer.

  A lot of the hunts this month are making that possible.  The first outfit looks awesome on or around the beach, plus what man would not tell you that you looked great in just a towel.  Plus for my Aussie it was close to his favorite state- "The one were you don't have to wear clothes".  (Facepalm).  The Life's a Beach Hunt is only 2L an object, you are looking for sandals or thongs as the Aussie says.  This outfit came from B-Dazzled.  Hint for females is "Hope it Doesn't Get Dirty" and the male gift hint is "Check to See if My Shoe is on the Right Foot".  Textures and the colors just pop making it an eye catching find this summer.

Happy Halloween Second Lifers!- Orchids Reporting…


Halloween  or the "All Hallows' Evening" is near!  And so is 
the time for making jack-o'-lanterns and dressing up for Halloween parties, but do you know the real story behind this holiday?
This is an old Irish myth about a man "Stingy Jack." Stingy Jack once invites the Devil to have a drink with him and tricks the devil to turn himself into a coin. Jack puts the coin into his pocket with a silver cross. The devil could not change back into his original form till he promised Jack  that he would not bother him for one year and if should Jack die, he would not claim his soul.
Come next year, Jack again tricks the devil into climbing into a tree to pick fruit and carves a sign of the cross into the tree's bark so the devil could not come down until  he promised Jack not to bother him for ten more years.

Soon after, Jack dies. God would not allow such a cheat into heaven. The devil, being upset with Jack and keeping his word not to claim his soul, wouldn’t allow Jack into hell. He sends Jack off into the dark night with only a burning coal to light his way. Jack put the coal into a carved-out turnip and as the legend goes, roams the Earth with ever since. This ghostly figure came to be known as "Jack of the Lantern," and then, simply "Jack O'Lantern."
In Ireland and Scotland, people carved scary faces into turnips or potatoes. In England, large beets were used. Immigrants from these countries brought the Jack o' Lantern tradition with them when they came to the United States. They soon found that pumpkins, a fruit native to America, make perfect jack-o'-lanterns.


There are many ways to celebrate the ghostly spirit of Halloween in SL ! Here are a few ways..

Hunts in Second Life has become more and more popular not only for the store owners but also for the shoppers. It is a way of purchasing goods in SL for a fraction of the price or even for 0L.

On the hunt ....


As most of us know there are a number of discount groups in and around Second Life, where we can buy a variety of things and depending on the group the discounted price is anything from L50 to as low as L25 for items bought on a certain day. I understand from vendors I have spoken to that these discount days are extremely lucrative.

Another SL phenomenon is ‘the hunt’.  The gifts made available on hunts vary in quality depending on who is organising them, so along came Titania Halasy and her 30L Hunt group.   This group morphs the discount phenomenon with the hunt phenomenon.

Titania explains “It’s a new concept: a hunt, traditional in its form, with hints and hidden items, where the focus is on quality rather than quantity.”

To all intents and purposes the hunt prizes will be of a quality level normally associated with full-price store items but sold at 30L each, when found. In all participating stores, Hunters will get a hint, with the hunt prize picture for that store and the landmark to the next store.

Hunters will need to visit each store at least once, as in a traditional hunt, to get the next landmark, but will have control on what prizes they prefer to hunt for.

Titania says “It's a great chance for fun and for Creators to promote items that will, after the hunt, be sold normally at full price in their stores.”

The 30L Hunt group is calling this hunt ‘The BLACK EGG Hunt’ and it is scheduled to run from 01 April to 08 April.   It is a circular hunt which means you can start it from any store.  The official starting point though is to be at TRIDENT (Houses, Furniture, Ships, Landscaping) which can be found @
