    legitimate question; how do those work?

    do you do something like, punch a hole thru it, and stick a candle in its place, or what?

    I’ve only ever seen pumpkin lanterns, and the turnips here where I am are about the size of a small child’s fist.

      If you’re in the US you’ll probably know them as rutabagas, it’s the standard turnip around here and a bit bigger than a white turnip. You carve them out just as you would a pumpkin, a bit more difficult but the end result is much better imo.
