It's alive!
In the winter we rarely go in or out of the front door because we have no hallway at the front of the house. We always use the back door so that we don't track mud or snow onto the hardwood floors. Unfortunately, this means that I forget about everything on the porch including these festive Halloween pumpkins. Jon was tasked with disposing of these rotting horrors but not before I could take a picture.

This is so juvenile, but tossing that into the air and watching it smash would be so much fun. It makes me wish I lived in a rural area instead of Boston, so I too, could toss pumpkins without getting arrested.

Ew. So like a corpse, from a river. Shudder.

From the little pic, I was thinking a blueberry muffin; however, this is definitely grosser.

The one in the middle looks like it juts burst forth with a hot jet of rotten gas. I'm gagging over the thought.

I saw a pumpkin on a second-floor, metal-grating type porch/fire-escape, on an early-spring thaw morning. The pumpkin had oozed down through the grate in this amazing way, then froze into orange icicles, and was starting to soften again that morning.
It was beautiful in a surreal sculptural way, like a Dali painting, and I was tempted to park my car nearby to wait for the person who would walk under it when it started to drop slimey chunks.

Pumpkin Man is suffering from some serious penetrating rotten gut.
Our backyard has a steep, rocky grade at the back. We enjoy throwing our rotten watermelons and pumpkins at the neighbor's houses below just to hear that *splat.*
