This year we’ve got 5 pumpkins to choose from! I feel very lucky 🙂 We bought our pumpkin plants from a local allotment open day. 50p each! What a bargain 🙂 I’m so chuffed with them and look forward to carving and finding delicious recipes. Pumpkin pie is on the cards… do you have any suggestions?
There’s one pumpkin left on the plot at the moment, he is deciding to turn orange, so I’m going to leave him there for now. The rest have hardened up in the sun, and are at home in their crate in the kitchen covered in straw. We need to get a little shed to store our harvested produce!
Roll on halllooowwweeen! 😀

What a brilliant bargain. I love allotment open days, the chance to nose round a different site – excellent. I’m happy to have found your blog, I shall be following along.
Thanks CJ that’s kind of you to say 🙂 the open day we went to had loads of goodies, which is great for us since we’ve not got a green house to start everything in. I’ve just use our windowsills! 🙂
They do look good! Bet you’re proud of those and rightly so 🙂 xx
I am very proud 🙂 I’ve got them in the kitchen tucked up like little babies 🙂 I don’t want to eat them really, just look at them hehe xxx
Good work, Kaz! Pumpkins make a lovely soup as well, with a little pinch of chilli. S x
Ohh nice 🙂 nice and warming now it’s getting cooler 🙂 x
