We always line our “used” jack-o’-lanterns up on a board stretched across the compost pile, and watch them slowly rot, then tumble into the garden waste below. The carver of the last pumpkin standing gets what’s left of the Halloween candy.

You can have jack-o’-lanterns or you can have pie, but you can’t have both from the same pumpkins.

I didn’t know you could say !!@# in a comic strip.

Minor nitpick: You don’t make pies out of the insides of pumpkins, you make them out of the shells.

Not mulch. Compost. Mulch is made from wood.

3 things some in the family do not like…scary things: pumpkins, scarecrows and clowns. Perhaps Stephen King had something to do with it.

I think Chip needs to practice on Jack-O-Lantern noses.

Jack O’ Lanterns don’t scare anyone these days.

sorry, but there is no pumpkin in pumpkin pie – they use winter squash

I love Halloween because we can scare the … …. .. _ out of people. At least the pumpkins and the scarecrows and the long leggedy beasties do.

Good afternoon Crew!

I’m quite sure that I wouldn’t like pumpkin pie made from the “insides” of pumpkins. I don’t care how much pumpkin spice is added.

How touching. Mr. and Mrs. Jack O’Lantern living out their lives together in a garden.
Good evening Crew!

Somehow, I’m sensing that these pumpkins enjoy scaring the * ! ! @ # * out of people on Halloween. Call it a gut feeling. [smile]
Good Evening, Crew.

Pathfinderman says jack o lanterns don’t scare anyone, anymore.
Maybe so. But you know what scares me? Talking, cussing, cognizant of its fate mulch. Yes, talking mulch scares me.
