Pumpkins, Pumpkins, Pumpkins


 

Pumpkins, Pumpkins, Pumpkins

What to do when you plant the wrong pumpkins…

 
After carefully reading and selecting the best variety of pumpkins for roasting we bought three plants, thinking this would be plenty to fill our freezer with puree for our favorite holiday treats. Pumpkin pie, pumpkin muffins, pumpkin bread, a pumpkin roll, and those blessed pumpkin cinnamon buns that Christmas morning wouldn't be complete without. But alas in keeping with our terrible garden luck of the summer we ended up with two plants (yes, that’s right, one plant didn’t survive) chock-full of these tiny boogers.
 
 

 
So, last weekend to fill in those slow Saturday afternoon hours we embarked on a decorating adventure. And just look at the cute decorations we have filling our house this autumn.
