Happy Halloween! Hope you did attend a party or two… that’s the only thing I love about Halloween.

@Seraphine — I have been kissing pumpkins for years and I still drive a shitty car. Don’t bother.

@Bluefish — We did have kids, but fewer than last year. Weird considering the weather was gorgeous.

@Caroline — There were a lot of kids last year but not so many this year. Not sure why…

@Linguist-in-Waiting — I’m sure these pumpkins are edible. But who knows pumpkin recipes for months! Cause it would take a while to finish them…

@Sidney — Thank you!

@Seraphine — Nah, I’m not a pumpkin person. In a soup, I don’t mind, but not as a sweet.

@johnada — Nope, no carving for me this year (no time) but I did feed a few zombies

@Khengsiong — These ones were small, maybe the two tennis ball together? The deep orange ones were huge though.

The pumpkins in the first 2 pictures look small. Or do they? There is nothing to compare their size.

Did you carve a pumpkin? Did you have trick or treaters?

i got a free sample of pumpkin pie at chateau safeway today. it’s enough, a couple of spoonfuls of pumpkin pie a year. i agree, zhu, chocolate is *much* better.

Huge pumpkins! Sometimes, I wonder, if the pumpkins grow THAT big, is it still edible?

How was Halloween there? Here, the weather was great, kids were roaming the streets.

Happy Halloween Zhu. Lovely photos! We are still recovering from all the kids knocking at our door last night — I knew there would be a lot but phew…

Never seen so many pumpkins in one place before (as in your photos…)

I noticed there was no kids on the street of my house…I think bad economy is preventing families to give out candies.

We’ll only be going to Ottawa for a day ’cause I need to study for my finals.

i love how your pics transitioned form the orange pumpkins to the orange trees at the cemetary. really beautiful, zhu.
haha. i love your little story about the friend who only dates nerdy guys.
when i was in college, i had a friend who had sex with guys first so she could ‘get that out of the way’ and have a real conversation with them afterwards. or so she claimed.
some pumpkins turn to carriages, some just stay pumpkins. i wonder what happens when you kiss one? hmmm…
