Halloweeeen!!!

This weekend is all about Halloween. Trick or treat, candy, pumpkins, skulls and horror! Traditionally it's apparently a celebration of the beginning of winter on the northern hemisphere. But I figure it's a little bit like the Swedish Easter celebration, it's a good excuse to eat lots of goodies and candies. This is one of the benefits of being a multicultural family, you get to celebrate and party more!!!

Our pumpkin lights, 2 bucks at Dollarama!

Our "real" pumpkin, about 16 bucks at IGA!

This is what it looks like inside! 

From the pulp you make a mess by boiling it in water...

And mix it with your blender and voila! Ready to make pie or soup!

I made my first pumpkin pie and it was absolutely delicious!

And here's the "shell" with candles inside of course...

 Here's our big pumpkin holding a very small pumpkin!

Happy Halloween everybody!

    BRAVO! I love Halloween even though it's much less celebrated in France. I gave two pumpkins to the village's Community Center which they carved out real nicely. Pumkin pie is delicious, a real treat:)
