Looking for some pumpkin fun this Halloween weekend? Here are a few (possibly new) ways to make the most of your festive gourd.

Decorate it!
The standard jack-o-lantern has some competition nowadays. If you haven't carved yours yet, you might want to use one of Martha's templates to make a stunning piece of art.


Bake it!
Leave the canned pumpkin on the shelf. Here are a few spectacular recipes to use while fresh pumpkins are available.

Compost it!
Come Sunday, don't just trash your pumpkin. Follow this article's advice on disposing your porch decoration in a more eco-friendly manner.

Happy Halloween!
