As American As Pumpkin Pie

Halloween is an interesting holiday when you really think about it. Entire cities get dressed up in their scariest and/or craziest costume you can think of and then send their children around going door to door to ask for candy from complete and total strangers. There's no family togetherness time, no Halloween carols to sing; only promises of violence and smelly feet if one runs out of candy too soon. Cute little innocent children become ghosts, goblins and other nightmarish creatures. All of this begs us to ask one simple question....... is Halloween not the best holiday or what?!?!? Seriously, could it get any better than this? I don't think so.

In order to fully enjoy and appreciate all that Halloween has to offer it is absolutely crucial to get one little detail right. If everything else fell apart, but you correctly coordinated this one detail then your Halloween Holiday will still be a success. And of course, that one little detail is choosing the perfect pumpkin. Pumpkins come in all different shapes and sizes, everyone knows that, but most people don't know that they come with a personality too. It is therefore essential to choose the right pumpkin for the job. You can't get a cutesy pumpkin and try to turn it into a vampire or a dragon. It simply won't work. That's why we spare no expense and leave no leaf unturned while we search for our perfect pumpkin. Only the finest pumpkin will do for us, so we select them right off the vine. And this year, I think we got it right.So many to choose from... which one should we pick???

How about this one here??

"You mean me, you're really gonna pick me?"

How much do you think this one will cost us??
