the shortage

i love halloween...love it. 

it's my favorite holiday, but i HATE answering the doors for trick or treaters.  is that terrible?  i just can't stand it.  luckily t does that for us.  he was on his own this weekend, so he went on a trek to find pumpkins.  usually, pumpkins are abundant and you can find them, even when you don't want them. 

this year, however, was different.  we had a snowstorm here, in case you didn't hear, that was gigantic.  we pretty much got snowed in.  while cool, this storm hindered many a pumpkin carving in colorado, as saturday came and the semis full of pumpkins...not able to make it through. 

i come home, not knowing what i'll find....and have spaghetti squash "pumpkins" on the front step.  i will post pictures.
