Pumpkin Carving

This year some of tried a new technique in pumpkin carving… scraping. You don’t really cut into the pumpkin you just scrape off all the orange part.

Great looking pumpkins! I didn't know you could just scrape off the orange. Does the light still show through okay when you add a candle?
