Choosing your pumpkin at the pumpkin patch is only half the process of the Halloween pumpkin fun. (Try saying that five times fast!) Once home, they empty the guts, or insides, of the pumpkin so that they can then carve the pumpkin with an expressive face or design. I remember that when I was a child, I always carved happy faces on my pumpkins. My brother always preferred scary faces. What face would you put on your pumpkin?
Hopefully it would be a little happier than the pumpkin in the photo above. Traditionally a candle is placed inside the pumpkin after it is carved to illuminate the expression. While children dressed as witches, ghosts, wizards, and in all other sorts of costumes go from house to house saying “Trick or Treat,” they see the carved and illuminated pumpkins at the doorsteps of the houses. I hope you all celebrate this special holiday. Dress up in costume! Carve a pumpkin! Eat sweets! Have a HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!
We have tried saying “Choosing your pumpkin at the pumpkin patch is only half the process of the Halloween pumpkin fun” and now we have a knot in the tongue!! What is the spell to undo it?
ReplyDeleteThe pumpkin throwing up reminds us of the Calvin and Hobbes Comic books. Do you know them?
