Well, Halloween weekend is basically over.
Is it just me or does candy have 0 calories during Halloween? I'm about 96.3% sure that's a scientific fact, otherwise I wouldn't have eaten all of those snickers, hershey's bars, cupcakes and tootsie rolls.
Anywhos, I hope you all had a fantastic time. To wrap things up, I'm going to demonstrate how to properly carve a pumpkin. You know, for next year.
1. Pick out the perfect pumpkin. (Or get a friend to pick it out for you...*cough* Daja...)
2. Select some jams to listen to in order to get into the "ideal pumpkin carving mode", and update your facebook, twitter, etc. to let the world know that you are having more fun than them.
3. Cut off the top of your pumpkin*.
*IMPORTANTE: Make a sweet design otherwise you'll just look boring.
4. Gut your pumpkin like you've never gutted before.
5. Think of a spectacular design* that will WOW any and all passers-by, and then trace it onto your pumpkin.
*Using a premade design is also acceptable.
6. Cut your pumpkin following the traced lines*.
*WARNING: This may cause unwanted anger and frustration to those using "Advanced" designs when clearly they are not "Advanced" pumpkin carvers. Just sayin.
7. Light your pumpkin, and enjoy the fruits of your labor.
THE END.
Happy November

thanks for the step by step. i missed the jams part, and carving a cute shape into the top of the pumpkin. dang it!
Hey, I have one question. How do you spell your friends name? I always thought it was Deja and you wrote it as Daja. So what is the correct spelling? Just wondering. Cute Halloween pictures.
How fun, I love your pumpkins!
Castle n' Ghosts is my favorite.
Question: How did you transfer the design onto the pumpkin? This is the part I have the most trouble with.
