Imagine, - big, beautiful pumpkins growing by the sea in our little town. Actually the land is owned by the Self Realization Fellowship, featured in a previous post.
For years, they put on a big community Halloween Festival and they displayed amazingly decorated and carved pumpkins from their own pumpkin patch. It was a fun event to take the family to. I don’t know why, but it’s no longer done. The pumpkins still grow though. Imagine how many pumpkin pies, pumpkin cheese cakes, and pumpkin crumb cakes one could make. Hey, what about pumpkin ravioli????
If anyone has any great pumpkin recipes they would like to share, please send them my way because....
Maybe one night when it’s very dark, and the moon is bright, I will go to that pumpkin patch and steal one of those colossal pumpkins.
Just kiddin!!
Fall is upon us, even here in San Diego. Enjoy the harvest.

Dont get me started on pumpkin recipes..Cannot live without pumpkin pie(waistline shows, too) adore pumpkin bread..then theres the ever wonderful pumpkin soup (maybe more like a puree)

I can just see you out there in the moonlight stealing one of those Big pumpkins! I'll send you a recipe for pumpkin muffins. Have a great day! Twyla
I love pumpkin too .. I'm thinking if you can make butternut squash ravioli why not pumpkin. . .I'll be back to see what you cooked up with that pumpkin. .
Thanks for popping by.
I'm a huge pumpkin lover. I make pumpkin curry soup all winter long.
I have to admit, I don't really do much cooking with pumpkin, but still... the larcenous part of me wonders if I could drive by regularly and not be very, very tempted to steal one, if only to use as a jack-o-lantern.
