Sit down and carve yourself a jack o lantern


Around here candy corn and pumpkins are hard to come by. But if you know the right store to shop they can be found.

Our October has been busy frosting cookies, crafting haunted houses, hanging paper bats, making garlands. Reading Halloween books for bedtime (our neighborhood library had a surprisingly good collection). And of course carving pumpkins.

These two bad boys were picked up for us by a friend. Her kids go to the American school, where pumpkins covered the soccer field for just $15 each. Such a steal. Half price of what they would have been at the store. Yikes.

Very cute - and those are the most perfect looking pumpkins ever.

Wow - $15 a pumpkin - and I refused to pay $3.75 each - went to another store and paid 7 cents a pound - $0.94 and $0.71 :) It all sounds like fun and, again, the duo are darling.
