Pumpkin picking time was here,
one down, several to go.
Taylor chose her favorite of the bunch.
This one is to take home,
the rest are for cooking!
Not a large harvest,
but as some of you know--
a surprise patch of pumpkins
that I thought would be acorn squash!
I can't complain.
I haven't seen many pumpkins for sale here, I don't think it was a good year. I got a few butternut squash but that was about all.
ReplyDeleteLOL, she's so cute. We're going to go picking next week.
ReplyDeleteManny- thank you!
ReplyDeleteSunnybrook- these were growing in the lettuce garden which is next to the house and is quite small. They got plenty of water whereas the big garden did not- after our Spring floods and the the summer heatwave.
Acorn squash would have been nice, but so are pumpkins for the Fall holidays! :)
ReplyDeletePumpkins are fun - I have unripe gourds that have taken over everything. Note to self, plant gourds on opposite side of property next year:)
ReplyDeletePumpkins are a big part of Fall. We will probably get a couple and set out by a bale of hay. Nobody will see them but my wife and I, but she likes to decorate like that.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great surprise for this time of year. :)
