Halloween Inception?

Bev is not into Halloween, in general (it’s one of those amateur holidays, where the fair weather drinkers come out and take up space in the bar line. Not my jam). However, the last few years, I have gotten into some aspects of Halloween. Mostly, pumpkins. I like to decorate with pumpkins, eat and drink pumpkin-flavored things, and carve pumpkins.

Last year, I went for the Pinterest-like “classy” Jack-o’-lantern: a white pumpkin with sporadically placed circles carved out (Smokey G- if you find rotten pieces of pumpkin in the hollow end of that one screwdriver where you can change the head, I know nothing). The pumpkin turned out great, and you can hardly see the hole I burned in my pants when lighting the candle.

This year, I went for a little more of the “classic” Jack-o’-lantern: orange pumpkin with a goofy ass face carved out. The pumpkin turned out great, and you can hardly see the football-sized pumpkin-scented “regular” candle sitting inside the little bastard’s grin (because I forgot to buy tea lights).

Next year, I think I’m gonna knock this drumpkin carving thing outta the park, y’all. 

I have a pumpkin-scented candle inside a goddamn pumpkin.
