Jack-o-lanterns

I took a few pictures of our jack-o-lanterns this year and they are kinda crappy because I should have taken them the day I carved them, but whatever. Plus my camera isn't so great at taking photos at night. They glow really cool and are much more awesome in person.

The ghost quartet which I spent an hour carving.


It looks crappy here but it really looks awesome lit up and I'm pretty proud of it. Here's a shot of it with my super-bright flash.



And this little guy is Lil's pumpkin. She just wanted a face carved on hers.



It's a tiny little thing but the rule was she had to be able to carry whatever pumpkin she picked out. After about 20 or so suggestions by Jim this is the one she decided on.



I saved all the seeds and toasted them. Half I coated with Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning stuff and the other half I coated with cinnamon, sugar, and allspice. They came out okay but I wish I had kept some aside and just done with regular ol' salt.

It's supposed to be fairly cool this weekend and I'm hoping to take Lil out to Adrian Orchard on Saturday afternoon, after my mid-term in my guitar class. I'm really nervous about it because I've spent my nights knitting instead of practing like I should have. Shame on me, I know.
