Preserve your Jack-O-Lantern

frybrainIt's September so now is the time to start shopping for Halloween stuff.  You better get on this before they run out.  There is this stuff called Dr. Frybrain's Pumpkin Embalmer that I spoke about in September 2007 that I just updated with the new information.

It used to be that you had to buy this stuff through Jack-o-lanter.com but that site is gone.  Now you have to buy it directly from the source.

What you do is you put the water in a 5 gallon bucket, pour in the mixture and mix it up with a stick or large spoon then carve your pumpkin and soak it in the bucket for 24 hours.  When you pull your pumpkin out the next day it will be very wet and it will have this white film on it that you just rub off with a towel.  Your pumpkin can last for weeks instead of days.

I bought this stuff in 2007 and it was great.  The pumpkins didn't last a couple or few weeks but they did last longer than normal which is what 2 days?  I'd say they lasted maybe a week and half as opposed to 2 days so that was good.  I would recommend this product.

It used to be $7.99 plus shipping but now it's $5.99 plus shipping so you can at least save $2 now.  If you don't have an old 5 gallon bucket from an old painting job and you aren't willing to dumpster dive in a work site then you can buy a brand spanking new bucket from them for $5.99.
