Pumpkin time!



Our local grocery store sells what amount to two different sizes of pumpkin this time of year. They sell small ones for 69 cents a pound, and larger ones for 14 cents a pound. If you were looking to spend the least amount on pumpkins for decorations, a party, or whatever, (Say for instance, if you have 7 kids, and they want to decorate pumpkins, for example) you might be tempted to get the smaller pumpkins. You would be wrong.

The small pumpkins are about five pounds each, give or take. The larger ones are 12 to 14 pounds each. The large ones are about the same cost as the smaller ones.


I got the girls pumpkins today, they decorated them tonight after dinner. We used to help them carve pumpkins, but decorating them allows us to let everyone participate, and is tons less messy. The kids don't seem to mind.
