This year I was trying to be a little thrifty (after the large amounts of monies we paid the dentist) and so I got the kids each a small "pie" pumpkin. That way they could have the great fun of carving their own pumpkin and then I could bake and scrape them out afterwards to make a yummy pumpkin...something.
Everyone had a great time picking patterns. Aiden forwent his chosen design and just started cutting into his pumpkin.
Unfortunately I didn't get any after shots!!! I thought i did but i guess not :( oh well. It was great fun. I always love the kids faces as they scrape out the seeds and slimy guts. We saved and roasted the seeds this year..yummm. And I almost abandoned my baking idea, but in the end I did it and made some yummy pumpkin muffins. I still have some puree in the freezer to make another triple batch.
