Pumpkin

One of my favorite veggies to grow is pumpkins. I don't do much other than plant the seeds and let nature take its course. This year I planted seeds from Gerrit's pumpkin from last year as well as new seeds (in case the old ones didn't take). Well, I am proud to say I have 7 pumpkins growing and a few are turning orange.

I had heard that if you carve a name in the pumpkin while it is still young, the name will grow as the pumpkin grows. So, on one of the pumpkins growning from Gerrit's pumpkin seeds from last year I decided to try it. Hopefully I didn't wait too late and this pumpkin will still grow a bit larger before turning orange. We shall see; I'll keep you posted.
