PUMPKINS- ORANGE THAT WE LOVE

Pumpkins are a definite sign of the season. Great for decorating a veranda or putting on a festive table. The seeds are tasty roasted. Some people crave the most beautiful creations. Our workplace even has a pumpkin carving contest! Does yours? Then there are the pumpkin pies, cupcakes, bread or whatever the baker can conjure from this Canadian vegetable. A country drive may take you to a pumpkin field where you can pick and choose your own pumpkin.
Soon there will be the news item of who grew the biggest pumpkin! And where! Apparently the trick is to inject it with milk so it helps it grow bigger. Don't know that I will pick my own pumpkin but I do know a good farmer's market or two to peruse for a good one! Are you ready to buy one?
