haha, thanks Seito, i think this is the first time my avi isn't wearing black, haha

Carving pumpkins...you know...I haven't actually carved a pumpkin before i don't think. But I'd imagine they taste the same as regular pumpkins?

What is considered a 'regular pumpkin'? I know of Blue Queensland, Jap and Butternut varieties, each has their own different taste. I don't actually remember the taste of blue queensland because it's soo hard to cut open, according to my mum. So we never buy them to eat.

EDIT: there's also one more variety I can think of, it's an asian type which I don't know the proper name for, it's small and similar to Jap

Yeah I imagine the pumpkins are the same :O
I vaguely remember keeping the seeds to roast them. But don't know about the flesh part? Partly I assume you don't touch that part because that's your stable element for carving. I don't know?

@Aoi xD It looks great

Maybe I will get a carving pumpkin next year, just to have a crack at carving one.

Yush. You should! 8D

I wonder what the best type of knife to carve a pumpkin would be...

No clue. They sell kits though. :O Cheapy kind so if they break it won't have cost you as much :P

Ah, I see. So just any ordinary kitchen knife I suppose would do. Halloween is not that big of a deal in Australia, so probably kits wouldn't be available.

That works :3 You just need one to pierce the outside to the inside.

Ah. I see I see.

I craved pumpkins for the first time this year. The first one was a pain because I actually followed the instruction on how to trace the design on the pumpkin. The second one was a lot easier to carve because I just drew the design on then carved. Now I have a pumpkin Yan, lol.

Yay for pumpkin yan 8D

awesome!

Ahaha mother decides now she want to carve a pumpkin this year.

Bit late isn't it? But then again, I don't know how long it takes to carve one.

Well it's only 5pm here :P

and she's in the process of changing her mind again *sigh*

Hahaha, I see.

My personal pumpkin was boring this year. I spent to much time on the one for the contest at my work to care lols xP

Se I love your avi <3

Happy Halloween :D ...though I'm still cooped at home listening to kids yelling outside my window, lol

@Fiona 8D Thank you~ <3

Happy Halloween everyone!

So I eventually kinda carved the pumpkin. xD Well painted it with nail polish actually.

My nephew carved mums pumpkin its so cute.. wish I'd had my camera so i coulda snapped a picture but meh.. that's what i get for not carrieing the thing around..

Aww well at least you can remember next time? :O

You can never make me your minion !

Well, ok, maybe you can. But you would have to give me a minion name.

Hmmm! Gold Minion! 8D <3
