This was Penny's favorite Jack-o-Lantern this year!
We hope all these Halloween decorations made it through the storm – or were taken in and return to be enjoyed by all of us city folks who don't have a space to decorate but enjoy seeing the craftmanship that others display.
One happy Ghost! Is that a bat mouth?
This powerful fence spiked a bunch of skulls!
Ed loved the surprised expression on this pumpkin's face!
This skull eats wrought iron!
A hipster pumpkin with pierced ears!

Anytime you're at South End Formaggio, remember to check the offerings in the charcuterie case. They have a very nice regular selection. In addition, you often find something you've never tried like this Surryano Ham From Virginia. It's made from peanut-fed berkshire pork.
We bought a bit of this and a bit of Jamón Serrano so we could compare the two. They are both tasty bits of pork. The Virginia offering is smoky and rich with a creamy fat layer and nice marbling. The Spanish Jamon was cleaner with more pure pork flavor. But, we liked both and would buy either of them anytime a lovely looking leg is on offer.
