Picture Perfect Pumpkin

I just received the most fabulous Halloween box in the mail. There were all sorts of wonderful Halloween goodies inside and I loved them all. But I feel compelled to share one in particular with you all because it is just too stinkin' cute not to be seen. My friend 'Broom Hilda' of The Hallowe'en Witch's Flying-Machine is one talented lil' Witchy Poo. She is an artist who doesn't do nearly as much art as she should because she is such a busy gal. But when she does do something, it's always terrific.

So one of my gifts....was this most magical hand drawn pumpkin. An original work of art just for me from one of my favorite 'ghoul-friends'! The artwork goes all the way around, onto the top and is signed on the bottom. There is a red-haired Wendy Witch, a black kitty, an owl in the tree, haunted house, ghosts, bats, pumpkins, full moon, stars...everything you could want to find in a lil' Pumpkin Halloween Town. She even picked my favorite style and color pumpkin...then decorated it in shades of orange, black and white. I don't even want to know how long it took her to make this...I shudder just to imagine. And how hard it must be to draw on a round, lumpy, bumpy pumpkin no less. But she did a phenomenal job and I am just extremely honored to have received what is now my most favorite pumpkin of all. It has a spot of honor in my living room and I can't wait to show it off to my friends and family at the Pumpkin Carving Party.

So a big THANK YOU to you Broom Hilda for the best Halloween gift ever. It's all the more special because it came from YOU!
