You know that old saying "a job is only hard if you have the wrong tools?" Me neither. But it could be an old saying because its true when it comes to pumpkin carving. This time of year, you can usually find our house by the sound of grunting and groaning and swearing and sweating while scraping the guts of pumpkins all over the kitchen table. I believe in years past, Andrew has even been known to break out the power tools to get the job done.
Then a few weeks ago, we happened upon this little gem at the Williams Sonoma outlet.
A bonafide professional pumpkin carving kit. You know how you buy those plastic ones every year, and every year they snap right in half? Yea, well.... these babies are stainless steel. Hoo haw!
Today we took them for a spin while carving our jack-o-lanterns and man-oh-man, it was actually a joy to carve those suckers. Sharp, sturdy and not a chance of breaking in mid-carve.
Photos of said jack-o-lanterns coming soon. I'm still learning how to use my new digital camera.
