Hey you did a good job, I have carved many pumpkins and none of them look as good as yours, I am just not a talented pumpkin carver.

You're hired! Next year I'll be sending you my pumpkins! Mine look horrible--and not in a scary way!! Did you roast the seeds, too?

No I didn't, I've never cooked or done anything with a pumpkin, what do you roast the seeds for?

You wash them, salt them, roast them and eat them! They are yummy!

Izzy (the youngest rabbit) had a nibble at my mums pumpkin yesterday (until she got told off)... she likes it... think we'll give some of it to the rabbits

Good job - your pumpkin looks very nice.

I miss pumpkin carving - but I now live in an apartment building that doesn't do Halloween, which is sad as it's my favourite holiday. I can't wait to get my own house so I can go crazy and decorate.
