Pumpkins For Sale

Did you know that there is a pumpkin shortage in 2015? Apparently, the state of Illinois produces the most pumpkins, and that due to heavy rainfall this past June, they lost a large percentage of their crop. I guess there will be just enough for Halloween festivities, but there may not be enough through Thanksgiving and Christmas for pumpkin pie fans. So last winter, when our pumpkins were no longer decorations, I threw them out in the back part of the yard. One of them germinated and yielded exactly one pumpkin that I just picked off the vine. 

BSoleille! The bright side of one cute home grown pumpkin!
