The Jack-O-Lantern Story
Blog City Prompt: You are a pumpkin sitting on a porch. What sights do you see? What are your thoughts?


I could have been a pie! Instead I'm a scary Jack-O-Lantern. But then I could have been a turnip or a potato. Or worse, in England they use large beets.
It all goes back to the Irish legend of "Stingy Jack."  Look it up
.
They wanted to keep the devil away and instead I'm first attracting elaborate carvers...then delighted small children. Go figure.

Actually I'm incredibly rich in vital antioxidants, and vitamins. Because of that I'd be more beneficial to you as a pie.

Happy scary month!  >>>iggy *Boat*
