    Probably, but I can not think of one now. We have strange sayings too.

    I dont get the point of wasting a wondering tasting fruit to just carve and not eat, you can make all kinds of wonderful soups, roats, stews with pumkin . . .

    sure you can. but you can only do those with the smaller ones. the great big ones are only good for joy. they're too pithy for eating.

    Naa you can eat them, as long as they are ripe enough

    i dont get why people will waste so much good food.

    I love pumpkin

    and it pisses me off because pumpkins are only around nowish times and not when they should be . . .

    We carved some inverted crosses into some pumpkins yesterday and put them out on the lawn.

    Proceeding to stick the carved out inverted cross on the door.

    Then we blasted some Anal ****.

    you now, my grandmother grew pumpkins, really great pumpkins. she'd get so many, that even after the canning, she could make fried pumpkin blossoms for me. a delicasy for sure, but so freaking tasty.

    so good. more like me than any other member of my family, but nicer, you know? she passed away a few years ago. right when it happened, for that first few days, i had a dove that followed me everywhere, one that my cats never bothered. that was sweet. and i smelled lilacs a lot. she made lilac extract to wear. shewas so cool. SO BRITISH. she grew and froze pumpkin blossoms just for me. she had to save some aside because they went through so many pumpkins in a year that she knew that she'd never have enough to serve me pumpkin blossoms with tea if she didnt' save them. it's a happy memory. pumpkins are the epitome of warmth, love, light, joy and usefulness to me.

    We carved pumpkins two years ago. It was the second time I ever carved a pumpkin. I carved a rubber ducky into mine, it was the greatest. What was even better was it was at midnight, in my friend's backyard, while his mom nagged us about saving those pumpkin seeds so she could bake them. She didn't use any seasoning and they were terrible. The end.

    You might be right but those same punks inadvertently provide a balanced diet for road kill enthusiasts.


    Sure a little squirrel, raccoon, or porcupine meat might be fine for some folk, but toss in a pumpkin, and you've turned it into a meal :drool:

    the only reason i didn't get one to carve this year is i've still got a ton of leftover pumpkin meat from the last couple of years in the freezer i've been meaning to make pies and muffins out of. got plenty of brown sugar and the rest of it too. even a couple of those premade pieshells i got for em. i just keep forgetting to get arround to it.

    i do have one of those plastic ones too, that we use as a candy dish.

    we had the funniest kids in our neighborhood. they'd steal pumpkins or decorations from one person's house, and stick it on someone else's. it was really funny.
