Pumpkin Carving 2019 🎃

🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃

 

Hi everyone, 

 

Some of you might remember that this time last year, the Community Team carved some pumpkins and shared the terrifying results here. With Halloween coming up, we are planning on trying our hand at pumpkin carving again, and will share some pictures of it later this week!

 

Pumpkins

 

We'd love to see pictures of YOUR carvings this year, whether it's of pumpkins, or other veggies like parsnips for example, which used to be the Halloween veg of choice originally 👻

@TallTrees I was really surprise to see carved parsnips, they're actually quite scary scream

 

Did you hang any decorations yourself or are the skeletons hanging in neighbour's windows? Do you get any trick-or-treaters coming to your door where you are? I'm very excited to carve a pumpkin, and make some nice soup out of it afterwards maybe Smiley Wink

@TallTrees Very spooky Fear

 

So we got together with a few other people in the office, and carved pumpkins as promised! With several of them being opened up, we ended up with a loooot of seeds, that we've since then roasted with spices and turned into nice snacks. I'll also be taking a pumpkin home as well to make a soup or a casserole, undecided as of yet Smiley Happy

 

Seeds Empty pumpkin

 

@Martin-O2 and I each carved one pumpkin, can you guess from the below group photo which ones we did?? 🎃

I can't believe you guessed so quickly astonished You're right @TallTrees, I did the ghost and @Martin-O2 did the cat. One of my neighbours carved a very detailed owl and I saw it outside their house this morning on my way to work. It was really pretty, and I was impressed no animals had a go at it over the night!
