Pumpkins

Ah, the ultimate symbol of Halloween.

The history of the pumpkin is interesting.  And there’s a great tale behind why we carve them up into Jack O’ Lanterns.

But you can do so much more with a pumpkin than carve it the weekend before Halloween.  There’s pumpkin painting.  You can make pumpkin beer and pumpkin wine.  Or pumpkin pie, yum!  We’ve got so many delicious pumpkin recipes that you’ll wonder why you don’t cook with pumpkin all year ’round.

But I know that you want to know how to make a Jack o’ Lantern as well. So here is my pumpkin carving guide.  And here are a ton of pumpkin carving patterns for you to use to transform your pumpkin into a Jack o’Lantern.

So find your local pumpkin patch and pick your own pumpkin today!
