Halloween

On Saturday night we were invited by Laurie and Bob to do some pumpkin carving and watch a scary movie. Neither Steph or I had every carved a pumpkin before, so we were complete beginners. It was good fun though, and easier than I expected with the right tools. The end results were pretty good too - take a look at our finished pumpkins on Flickr. The insides didn't go to waste - we made pumpkin soup with them and it is really good. Oh yes, and the film we watched was An American Werewolf in London - not particularly scary these days, but enjoyable all the same.

In other news, the heating in our apartment broke in the on position, so it is super-hot in here all the time. We are having to open the windows in order to avoid sweltering. It's especially bad for sleeping at night. Hopefully it will get fixed soon by the building people before we waste more precious energy!
