A couple of things I don't want to forget to share....

I want to make a big 'ol photo-dump post about everything from September, but in the mean time, I don't want to forget to share a couple of other things! The first thing is ice-cream, and the second is that I don't look like Sarah Palin!

First and foremost, if you're a big fan of pumpkin flavored anything like I am, you should check out Edy's

Sarah Palin saw your hair and went *STEAL* because let's face it, she could never come up with that without stealing it.
And your glasses are much more sylish than hers :)

You don't look alike even vaguely, so don't worry about it :)

I LOVE pumpkin stuff too, OMG! The pumpkin goodness!
Did you try Hershey's candy corn kisses yet, they are sooooooo lush!!!!!!

Bert's parents have SO many pumpkins this year, it's unreal, I might die just thinking about all the wonderful things I can make out of those :D




Oh and I'm ridiculously jealous you guys get pumpkin ice cream, I wish we had that too!

Thanks! I'm glad the general consensus seems to be that I do not look like her at all. ^_^

I haven't tried the Hershey's Candy Corn Kisses this year since I tried them last year and thought they were atrocious. Are they any different this year? Perhaps the European ones are better than the ones made for the US? Hmm. Was ut you last year that was saying they had never had real candy corns? Or was that someone else?

I think it's really interesting that the pumpkins in that pictures look so wild. You almost never see pumpkins that look like that here in the US. I wonder if they taste very different...

I got the US ones, we don't have Hershey's in Europe as far as I know (we definitely don't have it in Belgium). A friend of mine send them to me :)

we have wilder looking pumpkins too, we have like dozens different kinds :)

That's so cool about your pumpkins! Most of our pumpkins here look like the ones that Tim Burton has in all of his stuff. Even the ones that are for pie-making look like little carving pumpkins... Do your carving pumpkins look similar to the ones in the picture you showed? Do you all even carve pumpkins? I can't recall if I've seen a Jack-O-Lantern in your LJ or not...?

we have carving pumpkins, but we have to buy the seeds for them and grow them ourselves :)
Stores only sell the tiny ones that are purely decorative or actually edible ones.

We don't really carve pumpkins in Belgium, because Belgians like eating their pumpkins too much :)

If you've seen a Jack o' Lantern on my lj, then it's because I photographed one somewhere. Probably in Disneyland Paris :)

I like these pumpkins best, because they're the right size to make things from. One pumpkin makes like 2 pies, 2 batches of muffins, soup etc. If you get a huge one, you'll be eating pumpkin with everything for a month. Not that either Shinto (the iguana is as big a pumpkin fan as the both of us) or myself would mind of course, but I fear Bert might start to object.
