There is a definite nip in the air today. It has rained constantly for the last 3 days. I'm not complaining though - I love the rain, and the farmers sure need it. I went out to the vege patch this morning to get some zucchini to make my chocolate zucchini cake in the crock pot, and I my fingers just about froze!
But look at my splendid pumpkins!!! Aren't they looking beautiful. I don't know what I did right to get them this big - maybe it was the chicken manure. I don't know when to pick them - will have to look it up to see when is the best time. I really rely on the internet to tell me about these things!
The pumkins are gorgeous!!! It has been 70 here for the past two days. We are still in our winter season though, so it probably won't last long. They are already calling for freezing temps tonight. It was nice to enjoy the sun and warmth for a few days though!
Oh yeah!! now it will be easier to keep in touch! I'm so excited that you have a blog! your pumpkins are beautiful -- and don't worry, I eat pumpkins too now, not just use them for decorations -- but I'm sure you have so many more recipes than I do. You'll have to share some....
ooops, I forgot to sign my name -- Heather L. :) Oh, I can only post one comment every 30 seconds... guess I'll wait a few more seconds and try again. :)
Welcome to my blog. I'm glad you dropped in. I'm a wife and mum to 3 children. We are blessed to live in the beautiful South Sea islands of New Zealand, and I love to write about our life and the things we do on our homestead of 10 acres, our adventures with animals and homeschooling, and the little things that touch my life and those around me. I hope you'll enjoy visiting.
