In Florida, it's warm enough many Octobers that a jack can't sit around a 
week in any case. One year my youth group sold pumpkins, early enough to 
undercut the grocery stores, before Oct. 20. The one I brough home rotted, 
uncut, within a week stored in the cool, dark hallway.

We carved our jack o'lantern no earlier than the day before Halloween, and 
mom processed it the morning after, storing it wrapped in plastic in the 
fridge for all but the few hours it was on the porch Halloween eve. We did 
not use the lid to prevent soot build up from the candle.

Of course, we are also one of those rare families that doesn't decorate for 
Christmas until the weekend before. Not just because one brother's b-day is 
Dec 16, but to reinforce the idea of Advent being a time of waiting and 
anticipation, not yet the time for celebration.
