How to carve a pumpkin
It made me
Nostalgic
 "Extremely messy but worth the fun!"
How I did it: I carved a pumpkin last weekend but I carved too much out of the bottom & it rotted through! I ended up carving the same thing for my replacement pumpkin - Jack the Skeleton! I don't give myself many opportunities to be creative, so it was fun to craft something with my hands again. I plan on roasting the pumpkin seeds tonight. =) |

How I did it: I carved two pumpkins to be exact and although I did not have much of them afterwards the cutting was extremely fun. Actually I did it for work and we displayed them at the front entrance of the restaurant. Many people saw them so that's really cool.It definitely put me in a good halloween-mood.Seeing those two pumpkins eerily gleaming in the evening was a plus, too. It looked really cool.

And here’s pumpkin number two! Isak wanted three eyes and a scary mouth with sharp teeth. He drew a little picture and I went from there. I added some glittery green glass beads for eyeballs and they glow beautifully with a candle behind them. Isak thinks the runny nose is particularly funny. I think they make a fantastic and festive duo. Now if the sun would only go down…

Sadly one of our pumpkin patch duo got butt rot and had to be tossed before it even felt a blade, but the other one is fine and Markus picked up a replacement which has been the recipient of some sort of evil piglike face.
Isak’s designing #2 now…

Death to Jack
2 weeks ago
I carved a pumpkin last weekend, but I must have carved out too much of the bottom, because it already rotted! It was of Jack the Skeleton from The Nightmare Before Christmas and I was pretty pleased with it. Oh well. My roommates will be picking up some pumpkins this weekend to carve one of their own, so I’ll probably try to recreate it. And this time, I’m saving the pumpkin seeds.

I’ve carved pumpkins many times, and then they sit on my front stoop and rot. I’d much rather paint a face on it with non-toxic paint, wash it off after the holiday and make something pumpkiny to eat. Of course when my daughter is old enough to appreciate it we’ll carve one or two, my problem is I get too creative with the whole thing :)

Too Late
12 months ago
Darn! I was a little late on halloween this year. Last minute costumes. Last minute parties. Last minute everything. The boyfriend and I were suppose to carve a pumpkin together. I would be the first time for both of us. But, once again, I procrastinated. Definitely, next year!

Slap dashing the squash knife

We managed to get this done, but we were trying to get out the door, so it was last minute and a bit quick & sloppy. Mine was gnawing on a pipe and Markus wanted his to look like a howling electrical socket. We still had fun & it was nice to came back to that happy orange light, funky shadows and toasty pumpkin scent. Does anyone have a good recipe for seeds?

CHECK!
(Not that last year’s spooky watermelon wasn’t a smashing good time, but we thought we’d be a bit more traditional this year)
