Mouse's Hangout

I like them too! No way in heck I'd ever have that kind of skill! Those people are awesome.

[Vivianne]

Wow! I can’t believe someone carved that! It’s so detailed!

[Mouse]

I know, it's super awesome! I wonder if they practice all year

[Vivianne]

...are pumpkins sold year-round? I only ever see them in October.

Maybe they carve watermelons for practice.

[Mouse]

I don't think so! Plus I think this time of year would be when they grow
Maybe not though
That would make sense! They have a similar skin!

[Vivianne]

...ohmygosh, people really do carve watermelon.

[Mouse]

I know it's crazy!! I like that watermelon is more...patterny?

[Vivianne]

Yeah, they’re definitely more geometric. Maybe there are differences between carving watermelon and pumpkins.

I wonder what else people carve... obviously, people whittle wood, and I have a painted coconut half.

Avocado carving is a thing:

[Vivianne]

Whoa, that is so cool. Must require a lot of delicacy and patience.

Ice sculptures deserve a mention, too. I like to call them fancy igloos you can’t live in.

[Mouse]

That is really cool! Wow that would be a really delicate process

[Vivianne]

Yeah! Avocados are so smushy.

There doesn’t seem to be a limit to what types of food can be carved. I googled ‘food carving’ and saw a tomato.

[Lemon Cheesecake]

That carved avocado is truly amazing! (That person should become a plastic surgeon!).

Somewhere we had a thread that posted carved pumpkins. Gizzy usually posts her carvings end of October.

[Mouse]

Tomato would be crazy too! Thats insane!

I might have to post in that it'd be fun!

[MissAutumn]

Oh what?! You can carve tomatoes. There are some amazingly creative and talented people out there.

We need to find that thread and show off our pumpkins nearer to Halloween.
