There we were, diligently working on our pumpkin masterpiece . . . when out of nowhere comes a gooey, mushy, squishy pumpkin projectile, seeds, guts and all. I look to see who the culprit is, when suddenly I realize that it is my little girls instigating the hurling of humongous bunches of slimy pumpkin innards. I just happen to be caught in the cross-hairs of the now-ensuing battle. As the dust and seeds settled, we took stock of the damage, and I was glad that I had chosen to wear an old pair of jeans. The girls hair was a little sticky, but nothing that wouldn't wash out. The walls of the patio were another story. I think we'll still find pumpkin goo next year . . . This was the scene at a recent pumpkin carving party. It's a tradition with a group of friends that has gone on for almost 20 years now I think. In past years, the girls haven't been all that interested in carving pumpkins or handling the messy clean-up part. But for some reason this year they were all in. They scooped and hurled pumpkin guts with the best of them. It was a little messy, but a great time. And we managed to get our pumpkin carved too.

The firespike loves shady areas and grows around four to six feet tall, providing tons of blooms and tons of food for butterflies and hummingbirds. |
