Over at Christianity Today, Sarah Pulliam has been “getting political with pumpkins”–and it looks like a lot of fun. Definitely try this at home! She links to the AP page with some rockin’ images, but I’ve been unable to download the pattern to do one myself…

There is a McCain stencil here, but poor fellow, he looks as spooky as he does on the campaign trail these days. Not that I’ll tip my hand as to which candidate I’d immortalize in a big orange squash. But check out the Obama-related website (from whence the image at right is taken), aptly titled, “Yes We Carve.”

Treats, no Tricks, this Election Day.

PS: And remember, no Smashing Pumpkins! Except on iTunes, natch…
