Peter, Peter, Pun'kin Eater ...


We baked and ate our first ever home grown pumpkin last night.
It was exciting and buttery and delicious!

    1. Particularly in light of the fact that every other pumpkin seed or seedling that I have tried planting in the past has done nothing.

    1. I don't know what the difference is but somehow this year we've ended up with two seedlings and one seed that all took ... after so many years of failure it's nice to see them growing.

  3. Woo-hoo! Feels so good to eat something you have grown yourself.

    1. It's been great to be able to get back into it, although we are just about cucumbered out now :) At least the pumpkins can be stored long term if we end up with more than we can handle.
