    I had to look this one up. It’s the 3rd line of Mother Goose nursery rhyme, “Peter, Peter, pumpkin eater.” Internet article gives racy origins to this one -e.g. pumpkin shell = chastity belt; or murdered unfaithful wife’s corpse hidden in pumpkin shell. Back in high school, a classmate did a report of the backstory of seemingly harmless nursery rhymes - she didn’t include this one in her oral report.

    Can’t imagine the kitty would enjoy the gooeyness of the pumpkin innards

    The dog’s look tells the tale of the cat.

    “Peter, Peter, pumpkin eater /Had a wife but couldn’t keep her / Put her in a pumpkin shell…” So that’s what happened to yesterday’s free loving cat.

    Once I left an uncarved pumpkin on a stone wall near the house as a decoration. A few days later I noticed two squirrel-sized holes on opposite sides of the pumpkin, and nothing left inside of it. That must have been one well stuffed squirrel.

    Would it be a CATastrophe if they were to make a pie out of that pumpkin?
