Belated Homage to All Hallow’s Eve 

Funny how things work out.

Due to a mid-month impromptu visit from afar, we ended up having an early pumpkin-carving extravaganza this year. (Early, late – sometimes we end up not carving at all.)

Creativity ran thick in the air a few weeks ago, and we amassed quite the collection of most excellent hollowed creations.

Lest I be accused of failing to share these masterpieces, I offer photos of them in this post.

The ‘funny’ about my first sentence lay in the fact that, while everything was carved so far ahead of time, because of a couple days of very mild weather, nothing survived until the actual day of Halloween.

My Contribution

I bowed out of the festivities this year. However, given this cool article on the origins of jack-o-lanterns, I feel it’s only right to give a shout out to my very – odd – carrot (I.M. Carrot), who most definitely could’ve gone really creepy if I’d permitted it.

Ha ha ha ha.
