Jack-o-Lantern is an integral part of any Halloween celebration, as fro me it is impossible to imagine this day without a bright pumpkin with a candle inside. So, my own recipe of Jack-o-Lantern making:
Fisrt of all, take a pumpkin, you can buy it, grow it or just sill it. Then, put the pumpkin on a table, cut the top of the pumpkin with the help of a sharp knife. After this, you need a spoon in order to get rid of the seeds (don’t worry, your hand will be OK!). Next, take the pumpkin and draw a face on it, I mean eyes, nose and lips. Afterwards, you have to take a small knife and to cut a face to your pumpkin. Now, it is time of a candle – put it right into the inner of the pumpkin, then light the candle with matches or a lighter and put the top of the Jack-o-Lantern back. Don’t forget to put your Jack near the house, it will scary both naughty children and some thieves!
A small secret, in order to prevent your Jack-o-Lantern from the early death, before putting a candle in it, put the pumpkin into cold water with some bleach! If you have made your Jack beforehand, you can put it into the fridge, thus, it will look great!
