Vocabulary 89 - C1

The annual Oakhaven pumpkin harvest was in full swing. Herbert, never one to miss an opportunity for 'free' food, surveyed the sprawling patch with undisguised glee.

Margot, ever practical, eyed him suspiciously. "What's your motive, Herbert? You haven't shown this much enthusiasm for vegetables since... well, ever."

Herbert chuckled, rubbing his hands together. "Motive? Darling, it's pumpkin pie! Pumpkin bread! Pumpkin spice everything! Think of the savings!"

Later, back at the Walker residence, Brian attempted to carve a particularly stubborn pumpkin. His initial efforts proved futile. With a frustrated groan, he began hacking at the gourd with considerably less finesse.

"Brian, be careful!" Margot cried from the kitchen. "You'll screw it up entirely!"

Brian, oblivious, continued his assault. Suddenly, the knife slipped, and he narrowly avoided impaling his hand. "Ouch!" he managed to yell.

Herbert, jolted awake from his nap on the sofa, blinked blearily. "What's all the commotion? Is someone hurt? Where's my pumpkin spice latte?"

Margot, exasperated, pointed towards the front door. "And that's probably the police. I think Mrs. Higgins finally got that noise complaint warrant she's been threatening us with."

Herbert groaned. "This pumpkin harvest is turning out to be more trouble than it's worth."
