They looked great.</p> <p>Our little tea party was pleasant-- it ran to 11p, later than I had planned. I think everyone had a good time. Obachan next door (original geisha) was especially pleased. </p> http://openkyoto.com/kyoto-support/topic/jack-o-lanterns#post-222 Fri, 30 Oct 2009 16:02:26 +0000 peko 222@http://openkyoto.com/kyoto-support/ <p>Ahhh...Sorry, I thought that I replied to this a few days ago, but somehow my post is not here. Strange.</p> <p>A few years ago I got a killer carving pumpkin at a flower shop on Karasuma Street a bit south of Imadegawa. I paid quite a bit for it, but it made quite a Jack O' Lantern!</p> <p>I have seen carving pumpkins around this year at quite a few flower shops, even the Kyoto Coop had some the other day.</p> <p>I hope you part is a big success! </p> http://openkyoto.com/kyoto-support/topic/jack-o-lanterns#post-215 Sun, 25 Oct 2009 11:59:33 +0000 carol 215@http://openkyoto.com/kyoto-support/ <p>Where around Kyoto to find orange pumpkins for carving Jack O' Lanterns? We are willing to go out of town on train or bus. For a little Halloween tea party Saturday afternoon. </p>
