Hell-o
to a new epawsode of Bacon’s SHOW&TELL
this time Bacon asked for a picture what fits to howl-o-ween . That’s NOT easy. The land were my mom grew up was behind the moon and they had NO howl-o-ween as she was a little girl. Butt they had carnival or Fastnacht and there they ran around in their clawstumes, ringed on the doors and asked for candy or moneeh..
My momma was a sun, a red riding hood, a chinese girl, a gipsy, a chimney sweeper, a princess and even a ho what led to a serious war in her pawrents crib….. butt there was one clawstume, what she really loved. And it wasn’t just a masquerade for her, the moment she jumped in that clawstume she was the one she represented:
PAWCOWHOUNDASS
sorry for the bad quality, the ole pictures weren’t in a good shape :o(
She always dreamed to live with a tribe, to ride a black horse the whole day and to brush her eggs-tremely wonderful long black hair …. yeah… dream on momma…
The worst was, that they had one drama after another in their crib, because my momma wanted to wear that outfit even after the days of carnival. And my granny was seeding while she tried to avoid that my momma goes to school as Pawcowhoundass , swinging a tomahawk instead of a pen and smoking a pipe… and even when it is a calumet, no teacher will tolerate an 8 year old smoking girl in the class room…
Fortunately that days are over and that girl grew up …butt sometimes in her dreams she actually is Pawcowhoundass who rides her horse over an endless prairie, escorted by her silvermistygrey blood brother EasyHoundAss and closely followed by her defacto named CashCowHoundAss…. swinging her tomahawk and smoking her pipe… why not, she is old enough to smoke now :o)
It’s impawsible to make a switch from PawCowHoundAss to a pumpkin although both starts with a “P”, so here is my entry for the
FFHT
proudly presented by the Mayors Murphy and Stanley:
Efurry year I wait for THE pumpkin, the perfect carving material, what results in AWWW’S and OHHHH’S when I present it to my friends…
…butt efurry year I get a rotten deformed orange marble what looks like one of the cannonballs Count Nominoë used to chase Charles the Bald away.
And this year the orange mispurchase fell down and landed nearly on my paws as I tried to remove that ugly beast from my counter. And after that I never turn my back on another pumpkin.
HAPPY FURRYDAY TO YA ALL
Easy Blog 
We’re pleased to hear you didn’t sustain any frightful damage from the orange dude. Ugly beast, ins’t he 😉
Well, the uglier, the better for Halloween!
Revenge of the pumpkin…take care Easy, its coming to get you…..
Loves and licky kisses

Excellent costume – I saw the film many years ago – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poor_Cow
Easy your Mom made a rather INTERESTING indian maiden in her old HowlOWeen costume….I think she makes a much prettier blonde though WITHOUT a black wig on! I’m glad your Dad didn’t sustain any serious injuries carving your orange marble – I mean pumpkin. My Dad will be attacking my cat pumpkin tomorrow – let’s hope both of our Dads have all their fingers when they finish!!!!!
Love, Sammy
Love the pumpkin! Sorry it attacked you tho. Mommy sure looked cute in her costume. I had a Southern Belle dress my mom had to basically rip off me one year. I would have worn it for a month!

Two worthy submissions for howl-oh-een!!! Be careful though Easy, those pumpkins are heavy hunks of yellow fleshiness and can damage paws quick as lightning!!! Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
Easy you can never turn your back on a pumpkin, never. Although eating pumpkin is a yummy thing. Maybe if it falls again you can have yourself a pumpkin snack.
Blessings,
Buddy
Oh pumpkin tastes good too, I like the Pocky want a be we all want and dream, I dream of being the fast dog on earth, who catches all the squirrels
Those are great photos Easy and that pumpkin doesn’t look too friendly!
Love your pumpkin! 🙂
Weiberfaschtnacht (that’s what they had in Germany when women ran around being themselves extreme lol – cutting mens ties!). I LOVE your dream of being Pocahontas and your pictures showing your attempts – quite a dramatic shift from you now with your long blonde hair! The pumpkin looks fantastic – do you all hire out?! Have a fantastic holiday. Love to you all.
Oh I remember this event! The were eggstremely wild sometimes and all men wore cheap neck ties that day and had some in their pockets to replace them after a Weiber-attack >:o)
I remember one of our teachers was not prepared and lost a valuable tie that day … Well, he lived and learned.
LOL!!! Good times right?!
You know I relate to the PoCowhoundas costume… loving cows the way I do. I can see you riding free, wind in the hair! The picture of Easy really into the pumpkin, very fun!
Cole says, Easy my man, never turn your back on those pumpkins… they are spooky plus, they attract squirrels you can then catch! LeeAnna
really? I will wait for the squirrels… a good snack for howl-o-ween… and they are orange too… somehow :o)
growing up Australia we never even knew about halloween but we hear it has become more popular now. We did use to celebrate Guy Falks nights though or Bonfire night as we use to call it
I liked to dress up as a little cowboy… what can I say, I was a tomboy. I can see why your Mom would like to keep wearing her outfit after Halloween. Nice job on the pumpkin!
Hey Easy!
Wow, your Momma made a most spectacular indian maid! BOL Love the part about the long, black hair. Oh, BWAR HAR HAR The punkin looks perfect for HowlOWeenie.
Grr and a Spooky Woof,
Sarge, Furiend
OMP! That is awesome – your mom was Pocahontas – I love the pictures brother – they are great. And your dad carved a pumpkin. Snorts – mom/dad can’t handle their knife carving techniques so we painted ours this year. It was a lot safer knowing my humans. Love yours!! Happy Friday. XOXO – Bacon
Great blast from the past…
If you can’t smoke the peace pipe in a classroom, just where can you smoke it?
Grreat story, Easy! That pumpkin is definitely sneaky looking!
The only thing spookier than that jack-o-lantern would be missing dinner. Happy halloween!
Mom laughed and laughed at the cashcow comment…………that pumpkin is very evil looking….stella rose
EASY oh my Peter Peter Pumpkin eater they are not to be trusted they have evil eyes
Oh guess what mom saw last night? A license plate that read
“EASY” …was it you?
Hugs madi your bfff
…it was me… butt please don’t tell that my staff… hope it was a cool ride? (please say yes, pleeeeeease)
What a pity that your mom couldn’t meet Bronco Billy: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080472/!!!
It was very thoughtful of you to place a garbage can close by.
it sadly landed nearly on me instead directly in the garbage can… I guessed it that thingy was a mispurchase :o)
Well…pumpkins are supposed to be spooky and scary for Halloween…I’d say that your certainly fits that description!
Aaaaaaw Easy we fiink yous punkin be gweat. Yous mommy made a gweat Pocahontus. (we can’t spell today-MOL) Hope y’all have a pawsum weekend.
Luv ya’
Dezi and Lexi
Not a bad effort at carving….a bit foetal alcohol syndrom-looking, but not bad. We don’t really celebrate Halloween here, though the shops are trying hard. A section with Halloween stuff and staff dressed in costumes.
Your momma and I had the same dream about riding a black horse over an endless prairie! I think your pumpkin is really cute – better than ours, since we forgot to get one this year! Have a fun weekend!
Great pumpkin carving job! Sorry it nearly dropped on you. YOur mom was great in her costume. Mom has been many things for halloween but never an indian
hugs
Mr Bailey, Hazel & Mabel
We would have really liked your pumpkin….if it would have left you alone!!!
Smileys!

The pumpkin is bootiful — too bad you are not a pumpkin eater (how does it go?) Peter, Peter Pumpkin Eater. Well that’s it–wrong name. :O) Love your name!
MOL…your mom was so proud of her outfit. Teachers have no sense of humour. This was history, Paw…houndass was a valuable part of the American Native tale. Obviously, the French didn’t care about her struggles in the States.
Your pumpkin appears to have growths all over its head! Hope he’ll be ok and these growths won’t kill him. Our pump-kin had a growth like that and it started to sink into his face but dad, who is always ready with the knife, cut the growth out. The pump-kin survives very nicely now for Halloween.

Easy, your Mom made a very nice Pocahontas – Phantom could have been her Chief if you see him in today’s post:)
Your pumpkin looks a whole lot better than anything the Momster can do. She has pretty much given up on carving:(
Happy Halloween.
Woos – Ciara and Lightning
You did a great job with the carving.
Happy Halloween

My mom always finds it amusing the things the people from other countries are fascinated by in the USA. Lots of them love the indians and teepees!
Yikes, that is one scary pumpkin…you should definitely steer clear of that guy!
awwww…at least you get some kind’a pumpkin to play with. My humans never do that ever
You have a wonderful way of telling a story Easy! And we would NOT trust that pumpkin either!
Your Pals,
Murphy & Stanley
Your mom made a wonderful Indian Princess. I think that she should wear such a costume this very Halloween. ☺ Your Jack o Lantern is quite fetching! (That’s a dog joke) BOL! BOL!
OMD, your MOms looked very cute as Pawcowhoundass !!! I thinks she should have been able to wear it to school…and smoke..hehehehe
I sure am glads that scary orange bowlin’ ball didn’t fall on you Easy! Tell your Pops he did a FABulous job of gutting it! hehehe
Kisses,
Ruby ♥
I am glad the pumpkin didn’t give you any booboos.
Happy Halloween
