the great pumpkin.

 pumpkin carving has always been taken very seriously at my house.

you may spend the whole day brainstorming the perfect idea,

when you live with a family of artists this is bound to happen.

(side-note: living with a family of artists isn't easy. every year a terribly mean person goes around the neighborhood and smashes the ugliest pumpkin on the doorstep. for the past three consecutive years mine was the sad one to die. but i have a feeling that this is the year it is all about to change).

you see, take a look at figure 1.

i think i have redeemed myself this year. all thanks to someone with special talent.

thanks m.

for being my co-captain carving partner this year...

and for finding the perfect pumpkin patch.
