Last One To Post Wins [108]

Good morning, everyone. It's cold and gonna stay that way for awhile. 'Nuff about the weather!

The pumpkins have been baked and are in the fridge ready to be pureed and bagged in individual sizes for various good stuff like pumpkin bread and pumpkin pie, then frozen.

I'm saving some of the seeds for planting next year so I will have pie pumpkins at their prime. Cyndi and Russell have a very nice spot that was supposed to be a "pond", but turned out they hit gravel, so no go. The front edge of that pond should work for some melons, pumpkins, canteloupes, and other vine type things. If my plans pan out . . .

No more of those hard shelled gourds for moi! Although the finished product will be quite tasty when it comes out of the oven. And, the seeds I don't save will be roasted into snackies.

they pinch your fish and chips

Good Morning Wynona

We've got gulls that snoop the parking lots here.



Welcome back. Glad you enjoyed it.

I'm well away from the sea so we only see them when they are driven inland.

And the daft thing is they are a protected species.

There is gentleman in our neighbourhood that trained his pumpkin vines up through these small fruit trees. When the pumpkins, a smaller variety, started to grow it looked like his tree was growing pumpkins.

It caught my eye as we were out walking so we started to talk. He was very proud of his garden and his pumpkin growing trees. Cute idea.

Sea Gulls are rats with wings on them. Whereever there is food they congregate.
