Punkin' Love

By now you know how easily little things make me happy. Friday my sweetie comes home from work and as he steps in the door I see he has stopped at a roadside stand and picked me up two of the prettiest pumpkins for the front porch that I have ever seen:>) I just love these odd, warty kind of pumpkins. I keep saying "next year I am going to grow a bunch of heirloom pumpkins" and I always forget come spring. I plan to save the seed from these beauties though and supplement them with some of the green kind and the white kind and some Cinderella pumpkins too. Next year I am going to have heirloom pumpkins enough to pass out to friends and neighbors and plenty for myself! I love these things!

  7. Those are very cool pumpkins. I've been able to grow exactly 1 pumpkin in about 6 years. They usually get some kind of wilt and then that's it for them. What a nice hubby you have!
