    Well, the message I just posted went off into cyber space I guess......

    We started our pumpkins Sunday nite and have had company popping in ever since...wouldn't you know everyone shows up when it is busy. If we were sitting around twiddling our thumbs no one would come around!

    Got the first one cleaned out last night and I will be carving it while the girls pull all the 'yucky' stuff (as my primadonna daughter would call it) out of the second. Will post some pics somewhere when I get them done. :)

    LOL! My 18 year old said the same thing while gutting her pumpkin!!!

    I told her that I posted her younger sisters pumpkin on this site, so now the pressure is on for her to get her pumpkin on here too! I love sibling rivalry!!!

    This is a site I found last year, almost forgot I had it saved. They've got some good ideas for carving, too.

    OK...here's my attempt at a puking pumpkin. I know, I know, not very appropriate for a cooking site. LOL Hope no one gets too offended....

    I cut it out real quick today just to get it done. The procrastinator in me put it off till the last minute don't ya know. I'll get another pic of it lit up after it gets dark.

    The kids are right now making their costumes. Lucky Jess has a friend with a mother that sews that made hers. I've made a deal with the friends' mother that I will help her learn how to use her computer more if she helps me figure out how to use this sewing machine that is still in the box! (shhhh, don't tell her how much I don't know about the computer...lol)
