We carved our pumpkins last week. I usually wait until the day before Halloween to do this, because I procrastinate a lot. This year was going to be different. We drew our designs and I carved away. We put them out on our front steps, and the next night, it rained. Then, Hurricane Sandy reared her ugly head, so we tucked the jack-o-lanterns away in the shed. This morning I retrieved them from the shed, and discovered that the witch in the the girl's pumpkin had turned to mush and fellen in. No amount of toothpick splinting would save it. So I turned the pumpkin around and carved a new witch into the back. Then I patched the back hole with orange construction paper and duct tape.
Everyone knows that if you can't duck it...
