Ahhh yes pumpkin carving...


...it's time if you haven't already fulfilled this Halloween task. You can feel it at the tip of your tongue, the chill as it nears. At this point hopefully you have found the perfect pumpkin to carve, if not hurry out and see what you can find. You may actually find some of the perfectly deformed pumpkins that no one else wanted and need a good home. These can have the best results sometimes. Next you must brainstorm or play it by ear either way can be fun. Sometimes you can just take a good look at the pumpkin and start slicin' and wa-la you have a jack o' lantern at your fingertips. For those who might not get that oh so wonderful vibe you can check out ideas and printouts online to help get you going. http://www.pumpkinlady.com/pattern.htm
Don't forget to set the mood. Put on some Halloween tunes, eat some pumpkin goodies, drink some hot cider and don't forget to get down and dirty. They invented brooms, soap and sponges for this very reason. Ok you can put down some newspaper to help with the mess and don't forget to save the seeds for cookin'. With a little salt and time in the oven they make for yet another scrumptious treat. http://simplyrecipes.com/recipes/toasted_pumpkin_seeds/
Happy carving!
