Annually I carve a pumpkin or two and place on the front step. It’s a great part of the Halloween season. The seeds are yummy, the guts have a peculiar smell that bothers some, but not me. It reminds me of all things fall.
My carving abilities are minimal. I can hack out triangle eyes and a crooked smile. Never have I attempted much more.
Others in this world take it far more seriously:
Bully Pumpkin
Pumpkin Burger
Matt C.’s house. OK, maybe not, I just imagine it that way.
Cartoon House Pumpkin
(By far, my favorite of the bunch)
Here’s Johnny! Pumpkin
Obviously traced, but impressive.
R2D2 Pumpkin.
And, that’s it! We’re going to do our carving this weekend. Looking forward to it!
The Pilver 
I have four pumpkins waiting to be gutted. I want to do better this year than I have in the past. But I’ll probably end up with generic pumpkin face and slanty eyed cat.
Four! You are ambitious. Do you guys get trick or treaters?
Pretty obvious that you should carve Optimus Prime as he appears as a voice-changing mask.
You just helped me decide on what to carve, and no, it’s not Optimus.
That pumpkin burger is ridiculous! I mean, it’s a great piece, but is anyone gonna eat the meat, cheese and veggies on it? I could see why you would say the house with all the pumpkins would be Matt’s. 🙂
We carved our pumpkins this past weekend. I posted them over at my blog, if your interested.
Thanks, I’ll take a look!
Love the R2 pumpkin! Our carving abilities are probably equally awful, but I got a Star Wars carving kit from Target about a month ago. I’ll see how it goes this weekend when I do a Yoda.
