I've never seen a real life pumpkin, no. It used to be turnips here before moving to the new world. Halloween was invented by my ancestors and I'm really glad you follow a certain version of it and have made it your own. We still celebrate the Samhain bonfire to an extent and souling. I am actually really glad America continues our customs because they're most likely to be preserved that way. All Souls is a really big one! It's wonderful that you celebrate our Halloween with us and keep this tradition going.
Wow still amazes me you have never seen a pumpkin in real life when halloween starts nearing here there in every store around town, people sell them off trailors on the side of the road, and the churches have pumkins patches where they sell hundreds of them. Lol everyone has a pumpkin or 2 on their porch carved out. Its always been tradition in our family for everyone to carve their own pumpkin. You really need to get one now just so you can carve it its really fun. Everyones gotta do it at least once in their life
I'm not sure where I could lay my hands on one. I know you can grow them here but nobody ever really does. We're so short of space that it's rare for anyone to have much land to grow their own stuff. I've seen the seeds but that's about it.
What do you like to do with pumpkins?
