Our very own home-carved pumpkin for halloween 2007....
Janie and I on the Kiddy Bench...with mini pumpkins...
(btw shes 3 mtns pregnant yet slimmer than me lor..NOT FAIR!!!)
The Hay Maze for kids... wheres the one for adults??
baby pumpkin ....
I want this big big one... give it to me baby.....
My very 1st experience of Halloween....and Pumkin Patch..
The people here are quite onz abt Halloween and pumpkins...they are sold everywhere in Targets and Walmarts ( our Cold Storage and NTUC)...big, small, irregular shapes, ugly ones etc..
In the month of Oct..( btw Halloween is on 31st October...will be back from Chicago by then to celebrate back home... Yippes!!!) some of the rich households actually take the effort to decorate their front houses with webs, spiders, dangling skeletons, etc....
We visited this pupmkin patch at a small church... (for a good cause man!!!)...just last Sunday
Small scaled but think its good enough. There were crates of pumpkins for you to choose and take pictures with. Kids were playing in a mini-maze made of hay...they were really short, so some of them reallie cldnt figure out the EXIT!!!
Kinda appreciating all these festives and outdoor events which one can hardly find in Singapore...guess people back in Singapore are too busy and preoccupied with other stuff... or else no land for all these....or perhaps we are all just simply contended with our Orchard Road and Great Singapore SALE!!
So we went home carrying our US$4 pumpkin...and wanted to make pumpkin soup as well as carve it. Sadly, all the edible flesh has dried up and all that was left were many many pumpkin seeds...sobs.. there goes my pumpkin soup. Nontheless, it was a fun experience trying our hands on the pumpkin!!!
