After a rough start to the day (we ended up on an unexpected scavenger hunt for pumpkins after leaving their purchase to the last minute), we managed to turn things around to deliver the boys a spooky and fun Halloween 2021.
We finally found pumpkins still for sale at the third grocery store we visited (but not to worry - Advent calendars and candy canes were everywhere!! 😳).
We carved Jack-o-lanterns, roasted pumpkin seeds, donned our costumes and trick-or-treated our hearts out. The boys had a blast. What the heck we are going to do with all the candy they collected, I have no idea. We must have 100 lbs worth. 😱 That is so, so many sugar highs, sigh.
If you are looking for a useful way to dispose of your Halloween pumpkins (so you have room for candy canes and Advent calendars, of course) remember that pumpkins are candy for livestock. Feel free to drop your jack-o-lanterns off here at Gael Glen Farm for our goats and sheep to devour. You can even bring them right back to the animals yourself to experience their looks of gratitude and baaas of enjoyment.
Happy Halloween to one and all!
