The Harvest

One little, two little, three little pumpkins…four little, five little, six little pumpkins…seven little, eight little, nine little pumpkins…ten little pumpkins…yum. Although I don’t think any of them are large enough to win our little contests, they’re sure to enhance many meals to come. I’m curious to meet all the other pumpkins on October 12.

The growing season winds down

My big boy is turning orange which means the growing season is winding down. Although he's not nearly as large as Audrey's winner from last year, I believe he may be a contender. I just hope the bear doesn't decide he needs a pumpkin for dessert. I may have to pick him sooner than I'd like just to make sure that doesn't happen, but I do love to see orange in the garden (or in this case, on the lawn).
