Let's Talk About Pumpkins

Pumpkins have kind of been our thing since we first started gardening here (oh just look at them and their little cheeks!)

This year, for the first time, in addition to a nice crop of pie pumpkins, we also made our first attempt at Halloween pumpkins.  Unfortunately we weren't very successful.  For awhile we had four big beautiful pumpkins but then we didn't pick them in time (or I think turning them or elevating them would have worked as well) and they rotted.  But we did manage to save one lovely giant that everyone is quite proud of.
