Lotta has been visiting and she had a yen to carve a pumpkin. We went off in search of the perfect specimen.
\nNow everyone who knows me knows how fussy and indecisive I can be. Well let me tell you I am a dream to work with compared to our Lotta.
\nLotta is in her last year of University and like most students she is nocturnal. She sleeps during the day and studies during the late afternoon and on into the very late evening.
\nI began to think I would be chief pumpkin carver again this year as it was nearing time for her to leave.
\nAnd then…
\nOne dark and stormy night, in the smallest darkest hours… she began to carve the pumpkin. She sat all alone at the kitchen table, she chipped and sliced and scooped her way into the beautiful orange beast.
\nThe following morning I was thrilled to see that she had carved a lovely tree into the pumpkin and it looked fabulous!
\nAnd then it happened again… in the following darkest, quietest, smallest hours she chipped and chopped and sliced and scooped further into the beautiful orange beast.
\nNow we had a house next to the tree!
\nMy goodness I was beside myself with joy and wonder. A beautiful scene carved into our pumpkin. I was texting everyone in my phone book!
\nAs if that wasn’t enough the following night she toiled again, carefully cutting, chipping, slicing more and more detail into the beautiful orange beast.<\/p>\n

It was beautiful enough in the day but when we lit it during another dark and stormy evening…..Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! (there were four of us) Even the dog came to investigate and I am certain that in her head she thought wow!<\/p>\n

And I thought pumpkins just got faces!<\/p>\n

Have a very happy evening whatever you are doing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
