I opened my pumpkin from the bottom and could then just set the carved pumpkin over the candle. Having a pumpkin on the porch seemed to work some Halloween magic. I had two sets of 6 to 8 Tricker Treaters. Riley barked and then just watched. He seemed to enjoy the excitement.
I had well over 100 in the first hour! Year to year there is quite a swing in numbers. It was a beautiful day though, and being Sunday, seemed like many families were out together. (Starts here at 3:30!)
ReplyDeleteWe had no trick or treaters. Maybe if the pumpkins hadn't rotted and turned into gray, sagging mush on the front steps...
ReplyDeleteDuh!! What a BRILLIANT idea to open from the bottom!
