The end of Halloween marks a significant seasonal dispute. According to Twitter, October falling into November is officially Christmas season.

So naturally, both #November1st and #MerryChristmas are trending. Also, this year marks the 25th anniversary of Mariah Carey's classic Christmas hit "All I Want For Christmas Is You." So if you're one of the Christmas-obsessed, your November playlist is pretty much all ready to go.

But if you're one of the few who likes to postpone the wintery festivities, you'll likely remember that one of the best holidays happens between now and Santa's big day — Thanksgiving. And really, what more could you ask of a holiday than an opportunity to chow down on a huge home-cooked buffet?
