Retrospecticus
Something possessed me to make a collage of all the pumpkins I've carved over my nine years of house-haunting:
That's 39 pumpkins. Part of me feels proud of this accomplishment, and the competitive part of me knows there are haunters that carve 40+ pumpkins a year, no sweat. And though there are a few year-to-year repeats (my standby is the first pumpkin - I call the design 'Jack') I like that I take chances and try new themes and designs year after year. It's funny to look at them and remember what I was watching or thinking at the time I made them.
