It should be carved to look like a monster like-eating creature! That would be awesome!

I saw a show last year on these giant pumpkins--I can't remember how many pies they said one of these things can produce. It was a lot though!

I confess I have never tried to make a pumpkin pie absolutely from scratch. I always use the canned; it's simpler. But I have heard that the big, jack-o-lantern pumpkins are not the best for cooking. They say it is the small ones (not the miniatures, but the small "pie" pumpkins), that you want to cook with, whether you are making pie or soup, whatever.
That's generally true about squash anyway, you know. The smaller ones taste better.

These huge pumpkins are awesome!
Let's hope they can make them even bigger so we can live in them!

I forgot about another show that's about "punkin chunkin" where people build all kinds of catapults and see who can launch a pumpkin the farthest. It's so cool to see all of these huge homemade catapults and slingshots and cannons all lined up just waiting to fling a pumpkin hundreds of yards

It would be so cool to see a giant Jack O'Lantern carved with a skeleton hanging out of the mouth, looking as if it's eaten somebody!
