Home Grown Pumpkins

There is something uber satisfying about planting a couple of seeds and 6 or 7 months later having a few giants to deal with!

 It's SUCH fun carving a pumpkin and even if you buy one it's a brilliant messy activity with kids. Everyone can have a go at scooping out the flesh and seeds....

 Then we can all help to design a good scary face....
Ta Dah!!!!!

And there's still lots of pumpkin to use for yummy pumpkin soup, or pie, or risotto or curry....the possibilities are endless. Yum yum.
