I’m rather fond of the two story tomato. the view is awesome and I can always eat the house if I get hungry with some balsamic vinagrette.

I rather like the pumpkin although it might be due to the obvious fireplace and the wooded setting. Also, getting through that narrow staircase in the tomatoe townhouse might be difficult.

Suzanne, what if the neighbors get hungry before you do? It gives the expression “invite people over to eat at the house” a whole new meaning. And pitchforks a whole new use.

I remember being read a story when I was little about a mouse who found an old jack o’lantern to hibernate in. Before winter came, it started to rot, and all the openings sealed shut keeping the mouse protected from the elements. When spring came and the pumpkin thawed out, it completely came apart, waking up the mouse and releasing it back into the warmed up world.
