There was such a fun response to the apple giveaway, that I decided to offer a "I love Pumpkins Giveaway". For me, Pumpkins are the item I most associate with Fall, Halloween, and Thanksgiving. Without pumpkins, it just wouldn't feel right. Since Fall officially arrives on September 22 at 2:19 EDT, let's welcome her arrival with a Pumpkin winner!
So, if you wish to toss your name in the pumpkin basket, leave me a message about your own feelings regarding pumpkins and Fall. Have you ever grown them? Do you like pumpkin pie? Let's share here with your thoughts so we all can enjoy welcoming and celebrating one of the icons of Fall! Sign ups will go through September 22, and a winner will be chosen and posted on September 23.
I am excited to say Dianna Hauf is our winner for the Pumpkin Giveaway! Diana, your package is going in the mail today and I hope you enjoy!!
Thank-you everyone for all of your interesting stories about your love of pumpkins. I enjoyed learning that there are so many people like me who look forward to Fall which brings us our PUMPKINS. Happy Fall everyone and Happy Pumpkin Season to you all!!
I can't wait to hear from you!

Dianna, I am so happy that you enjoyed your pumpkin goodies!! And your cat story has me laughing as I can just see them terrorizing a piece of moving paper. Nothing like some wonderful cat humor fill us with happiness!!

Oh my Winnie, what a happy wonderful box this is! Full of my favorite seasonal goodies! O love fall the best and Thanksgiving the nest! So thank you so very much for the joy this brought me today! A beautiful fall dish towel, sachet, pumpkin note pad, little fall sign, yummy jelly beans, a beautiful fall flag which i needed and 2 gorgeous fall cards to send out, and your handmade fall card with pumpkin seeds! All so perfect! Thank you, thank you!!
BTW, I threw the tissue paper on the floor and my ceiling fan is on. Made the tissue paper travel by itself across the floor triggering all 4 cats into the dining room, mesmerized by the paper and then the cat attacks began! Slipping, sliding, attacking the paper! I laughed so hard till tears ran down my face! They thank you too. Big hugs, lots of love!!

Connie, we've been in a heat wave and a terrible dry spell for over 4 weeks! Everything is dying here. The pond is at its lowest! So they are forecasting rain in 2 days and then cooler weather. Ill believe it when I see it! But I do so love your recipe!! :)

Connie, I love your pumpkin patch. Looks like a fun display to have around. Those Charlie Brown specials are so heartwarming. One day I hope to have grandchildren to share them with.

I love reading all these pumpkin comments and the recipes and ways of enjoying pumpkins all sound delish!! I wish I could give everyone a giveaway because all of you pumpkin lovers help keep the spirits of Fall lit despite the summer that refuses to leave some of us and the ever frustrating inability to actually grow pumpkins. LOL!!!
