1st Halloween 初めてのハローウィン

チビの初めてのハロウィーンに、(アメリカ生活長いのに)初めてパンプキンのランタンを作ったぞ!かなり固くって、彫るのにかなり疲れた…(娘のためにエンヤコラ〜♪)可愛いからと、小さい物を買ったら経験者の旦那(手伝ってはくれなかったよ… 涙)もビックリするくらい固かったのです。彫るのに向き不向きがあるんだね〜Σ(゚д゚;) トホホ. 疲れたよ〜!!! 

Yesterday was Akari's 1st Halloween as well as the first time I ever carved out a pumpkin (I have done the oranges... ;))!! However, I made a mistake of picking a small pumpkin which turned out really hard as a rock to carve out... I broke in sweat and had to take breaks before I was able to finish it up (thanks to my hubby who didn't help...). Who new there is a certain kind of pumpkin for a Jack-O-lantern!! A lesson learned. :/

なんか、かぼちゃと違って糸ように固くって引張っても切れない繊維が、沢山!パンプキンの脳みそだぁ〜
Pumpkin's brain!! It was pretty yucky, and I didn't enjoy scooping it out...

  1. I can't believe this was your first time carving a pumpkin :) It looks great! As does little Akari :) Love the pink skeleton!

  2. Cathy, I don't know why I waited this long to carve one out... But funny how having a kid makes you do things you've never done! Hope your Halloween was good one ;)
