Things I Like About America: Halloween
Halloween was never really that big in England when I was growing up. We didn't trick or treat, didn't decorate the outside of the house, didn't wear costumes. Back then, it was always something those Americans did.
These days I'm practically one of those Americans myself and gladly take part in all the Halloween shenanigans. Like carving Pumpkins with my girlfriend's little one.
I do like Halloween.
Awesome pictures. And I L O V E the pumpkin monster/ghost!
And aren't you glad to be here now so you can properly enjoy Halloween?
And what an awesome pumpkin it is! Don't forget to smear a little petroleum jelly all over the inside/cuts to keep it fresh!
6ft5... thankies, I think he's a Tasmanian Devil, or something ;-)
kapgar... every year I love Halloween. My inner 7 year old comes out in full force.
dave... good tips sir, I'd never heard about the vasoline on the inside trick.
Dave2 beat me to the Vaseline trick.
Great looking pumpkin.
And it's amazing that something that started in Old England is celebrated more in another country.
marty... my sister tells me that Halloween is celebrated more now in England but when we were kids we got the shaft ;-)
