Happy Halloween

This year I went as Miss Teen South Carolina. I got surprisingly tired of reciting her speech...

Wow, that pirate ship pumpkin is amazing!

Thanks! For reference for future pumpkin carving endeavors (are halloween or pumpkin carving traditions in NZ?) one consequnce of very thin pieces was is that they rot very quickly. If you want a pumpkin to last, keep it thick!

Pumpkin carving is an unknown art in NZ. Halloween as a whole is something of a sticking point. In my youth Trick or Treating was unheard of, but it's slowly increasing. This year we had maybe three trick or treaters come to the house.
I don't imagine that it's very profitable for the kids, since no one is prepared for it. But I suppose we get so much American tv that it's bound to happen.

Dang, that's a nice set of pumpkins you've got there.

Thanks Sean! You coming to watch the show Friday?

Far less disturbing than your Charlie Chaplin costume.

haha. I'm impressed you remembered. I try to alternate years of wearing a mustache--one year on, one year off...

I love your costume!
I dressed as a sort of Texas beauty queen with a huge wig and a tiara and TONS of makeup. I mostly just wanted a reason to buy a tiara. And now I have one. Suck it South Carolina!!! Like such as!!!!
