I LOVE carving pumpkins, and Halloween in general!

These are our first three we did yesterday. I did the cat and the witch, my boyfriend did the face. We'll be doing a few more tonight or tomorrow!

Post your pumpkin pics here too!

Your pumpkins are awesome. I wouldn't know the first thing about carving a pumpkin. I love them all.

Thanks guys!

I have the idea now to do two more pumpkins - a great dane and a rabbit so that I have all my babies represented!

Wow, I'm impressed!


I hadn't planned on carving any pumpkins this year... I'm not really sure why, I just didn't think about it. Today, I went to visit my family who was in fromt out of state, and found out that my niece and nephew picked out pumpkins for me when they went to the pumpkin patch.
So now I have two medium-sized pumpkins I'm unsure what to do with. Everytime I carve them, I just carve faces... smiling, happy, very un-scary, un-Halloweenish faces.

I havent carved a pumpkin in sooo long. The seeds are great to eat too, just lay them on a sheet pan and sprinkle with salt and voila! better than store bought.

Yum! Now I might just have to do a pumpkin for the seeds. I love making the seeds, not so much fun making the pumpkins - don't like pumpkin guts on my hands!

WOW! Those are awesome pumpkins! We usually do one -- teamwork: I draw and Rob wields the carving tools -- and we've had some modest successes. Here's one from a few years ago -- the only one we've ever taken a picture of -- and not as dramatically presented -- but Jack was a pleasant fellow...

My hubby is carving 6 pumpkins for his night club, but living in an apartment with like zero trick-or-treaters, we haven't carved our own in years. I'll see if he wants to take pics of the pumpkins and the club all decorated.....for the club's website...yeah, that's it!

Your pumpkins are all great!

(And I also LOVE the seeds. I made cajun seeds last year, and garlic ones.
)

You guys eat pumpkin seeds?


I remember Nana & I grew pumpkin seeds, when I was little a few years ago. It was so fun watching the pumpkins grow!

They are finally being smart and having Halloween all week. They've tried in years past to have one big party with all the different types of music, but it never ends up working. So they are doing their regular themed nights, but Halloween all week instead of just on the 31st. (Rock night on Wednesday, Hip-Hop/Rap on Thursday, 70s-80s R&B Fridays)

Oh that's a good idea for the club Heidi. So are you going one of the nights in costume or anything?!
(Sorry so OT!)
