Carving Crombies

The kids sketch the face onto their pumpkins, Papa carves, kids scoop until tired & mama finishes.

Alan is seeking a patent on his new pumpkin top / lid design which involves cutting part of the top & part of the backside. His theory is it makes for easier scooping out, and way easier candle lighting. Nolan was the only one who was willing to let Papa use his pumpkin as a test bed for his theory.

Steps to successful pumpkin carving:

1. As Darla demostrates above . . . . bite on bottom lip while scooping

2. Even when your fingers are sticky & icky from pumpkin strings & seeds . . . forge ahead as Nolan shows above

3. Dont use cheap steak knife to carve unless husband is willing to listen to wife naggingly ask him to use large serated knife instead please.
