We get an heirloom pumpkin from a local farmer every year so we can eat the yummy insides....
by the way, have you noticed that all canned pumpkin comes in 15oz. cans now a days?And all my old recipes that call for a can mean a 16oz can so I save the extra cooked pumpkin in frozen 1oz. packages...
This is a huge pot but of course it cooks down a lot!

Living on a dead end street means we don't get many trick-or-treaters but we decorate the place up and have a grand old time visiting with the neighbors. I hope your Halloween was loads of fun too!

You guys seem to have so-o-o-o much fun at Halloween, with lots of buildup etc. We just don't celebrate it at all here. It's just another day that passes by without notice. Your son did a great job on that pumpkin, BTW.
ReplyDeleteImpressive pumpkin carving!
ReplyDeleteHappy Halloween!
great job on the wolf carving :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you guys had such a great Halloween!
Great picture! Looks like you guys had a great time. I never get trick or treaters either, so I spent the evening down the street.
ReplyDeleteMmmmm pumpkin seeds!
Fab mantel arrangement!
ReplyDeleteWe had a grand old time celebrating Samhain - we did our little sunset ritual before the guests arrived and the boys enjoyed the lighting of the candles (pyros...), We had a little party so the kids got to go trick or treating with other kids, and we got to hang out with other grown ups, so a good time was had by all!
Excellent wolf - the Beast has outdone himself - but would it kill him to smile??? Ack, teens!
nice carving Max!
ReplyDeleteI Love pumpkin posts! Hey. Great job on that article for the Storque. You really did a fantastic job.
ReplyDeleteYour son is a great artist, just like his Mom. He may not be smiling but at least he agreed to being posted on your blog, I wish mine would! :)
ReplyDeleteis that a fairytale pumpkin? The light orange ones?
ReplyDeleteYes! Of course, since I'm named for Cinderella, I'd have to have a fairytale pumpkin!
ReplyDeleteThe master pumpkin carver did an amazing job!
