We got our pumpkins over the weekend but had not cleaned or carved them yet. Needless to say, time is running out! We brought them up out of the garage this morning after the girls went to school and then Tim dug right on in.
That pumpkin was a pain. Whoever picked the 32 pound gourd is an idiot (why, yes, that would be moi!). The worst part was that it didn't even have that many seeds to roast. How fricking disappointing.
Check out the thickness of that skin/rind or whatever it is called. It is currently sitting on the dining room table with about 1/3 of a bat carved in it. I carve one section every 30 minutes or so, my hands hurt. Tim and I carved the other pumpkin this morning and it was no where near this much of a pain.
Later taters! Am off to have dinner, roasted pumpkin seeds and hot chocolate with a shot of french vanilla creamer in it. Yum-O!
