My mom was right... I *am* special!

So, it appears that I was destined to be the lesbian Martha Stewart. I know, images of Martha with a mullet are dancing in your head. It's a hard image to shake, trust me.

Anyhow...I combined two staples of fall--mums and pumpkins--into one delightful hybrid decoration...the Mumkin. "How do I get a Mumkin," you might be asking yourself this very minute. Well, I will tell you.
First you must harness your inner Mullet Martha. This entails getting out a knife, a big spoon, and some sort of bowl for collecting pumpkin guts. Step 1: cut the top off the pumpkin. Step 2: Scoop out the guts. Of the pumpkin. Use the knife to poke a hole in the bottom of the pumpkin for drainage purposes. Step 3: Take the mums out of their pot and cram them in the pumpkin. Now, I should have mentioned that you will need to eyeball the mum to make sure it will fit in the pumkin, but if I have to spell it out for you, perhaps you shouldn't be wielding a knife and a big spoon in the first place.
