1. Carving
For instance you can include the classic pumpkin carving tradition in your Autumn preparation and create fall themed creations out of the layers of potential in each pumpkin. You can construct unimaginable designs so realistic that you might mistake one for a professional piece of art.
2. Pie
If you are more interested in the sweet treat side of things the classic pumpkin pie is always a contender. The classic pumpkin pie is an easy way to incorporate the seasonal pumpkin into a fun festive dessert for the whole family. It is not to hard to make and it only requires a few ingredients.
