"Xander, don't taunt the fear demon."

Went pumpkin carving at amicu's with Rhiannon and tigerpixie last night! I had never carved a pumpkin before and was a little worried that I might end the evening with fewer fingers than I began it with, but all was well. There are many photos on facebook here; I shall post my effort under a cut:

amicu and Rhiannon made the innards into lovely pumpkin soup (slightly too spicy, but that was the recipe's fault, not theirs), and later we made pumpkin cupcakes decorated with chocolate spiderwebs (turning into a pumpkin, brb). We ate them watching an appropriate Buffy episode, "Fear Itself", which contains one of my many favourite Buffy moments: Xander asks Buffy, who is dressed as Little Red Riding Hood, "What have you got in the basket, little girl?" Calmly Buffy replies: "Weapons." &BUFFY;! I do love a good fairytale subversion.
