Hehe this made me giggle. I know they are meant to be scary but they look so cute!
Helene Dsouza says
Actually they are meant to be cute and scary. After recent local events I had to opt for that direction.

dassana says
this is such a great idea helene. halloween is has always been so new to me in spite of seeing so many posts all around for the last 4 years. i just cannot relate to it at all 🙁
but i loved your creative idea of halloween with the coconuts.
Helene Dsouza says
Dassana, we don’t celebrate the American Halloween either in central Europe. We roman Catholics have the all souls day (not sure if its called like that in English). The difference is that we don’t have kiddish trick or treats round abouts, we go to the cemetery on the 1st and 2nd of nov to honor the dead. The tradition hails back from the Celts -> Shamhain. It marks a new year in ancient times and its the beginning of the cold season and ends (actually) at carnival just before the fasting season. They say the daemons awaken in this period and their peak time is on the 5th of December when the daemons come down the mountains to take the naughty kids and on the 6th saint nicolas (santa clause) comes to reward the good kids, but thats another story… ^.^
I always found Halloween fun because of the creativity involved. =)

This looks so cool and adorable!
Helene Dsouza says
Imagine those served on the beach for Halloween. ^.^
Katherine Martinelli says
Hahaha these are so cute and definitely made me giggle. What a great idea!
Helene Dsouza says
=D
Ginza George says
Aww these are so sweet…and you went the full length to entertain us, thanks!!
Are those plantains or bananas?
Loved the photos especially the sickle!
Helene Dsouza says
=D yep all the way! Those are locally grown bananas from the neighborhood. They have a darker yellow shade, are a bit slimy and have much more flavor. My husband won’t eat any other bananas…
Thanks dear! 😉
Balvinder says
I was waiting for my daughter to wake up and see this post. She loved your idea so much that she has decided to use make this for Halloween. I don’t do anything on Halloween but she loved this holiday and I cooperate with whatever she asks for.

What a great idea to use coconuts! I know pumpkins aren’t always readily available to everyone! Wish I had younger children…they would have loved these when they were little 🙂
Helene Dsouza says
Liz I dont have kids, but I have to feed my inner child sometimes. =P

Hahaha! They are cute little guys and I’m sure the kids would love the display. This would definitely counter Mr. Pumpkin heads. Thank you and have a good weekend, Helene! 🙂

Hey Ray, you are right kids just love them, well I can understand why, they look to cute, not horrible spooky. 😀 Thanks I wish u the same!
rita cooks italian says
Very spooky, it reminds me a little bit Mr Wilson in Cast Away (the movie). I’m sure my kid would love it!!!!
Helene Dsouza says
LOL I had to laugh at the thought of Wilson and you are right in a way, they have some similarities Rita. =)
Aparna says
