The other night we had a few people over for a bit of a shin-dig. The original plan was to go bowling but with the late start and lack of resevation at the alley, who knew that you need reservations for a bowling alley? So the idea was put forth that we go buy some pumpkins and carve jack-o-lanterns.
Off to the grocery store we went and searched through hundreds of huge orange gourds. Megan had given me the resposibility to find a pumpkin worthy of sitting on our porch for this spooky season that is upon us. Meanwhile, Megan went to go grab some snacks for the people that were now coming over. One of the things that she got were taquitos.
I love taquitos. Just look at them, what is bad about them ... nothing.
As important as taquitos seem to be and as important as they were that evening, they had to give way for the main event. Taquitos can not give you the awesome entertainment that scooping out Pumpkin guts can. And then when you add the sheer pleasure of carving holes into the face of a pumpkin a state of nirvana is nearly achieved.
This lady knows what I am talking about.
We had a lot of fun and our pumkins turn out, specifically into jack-o-lanterns. Check it out for yourself.
Happy Halloween!
THEY ARE AWESOME!!!!!!- The taquitos that is. Your pumpkins are sweet too. I miss you.
ReplyDeleteWAY TO shoot from the hip....looked like the impromptu party was a HIT!! I think I would have put a taquito in your pumpkin's mouth...because really, what's NOT to love about a taquito?!
ReplyDeleteMan, this makes me hungry. For Taquitos, not for pumpkin flesh.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had fun. Did you put it out side as your other one you thought got stolen?
ReplyDeleteCool pumpkins!! I'm so jealous that I had to go to a stupid dance and didn't get to carve Jack O Lanterns
