Winnie I like pumpkin pie with a dollop of whipped cream, but my favorite is pumpkin bread or pumpkin roll with creme cheese. When I had an afterschool group near Halloween, we did an activity with pumpkins. We bought everyone a small pie pumpkin and cut the top off so they could scoop it out. Once they had the pumpkin cleaned out, they would estimate how many seeds they thought it would be, and then count the actual seeds in their pumpkin. Then it became a math lesson. They had to figure out if they planted each of the seeds from their pumpkin, and it produced three pumpkins, how many pumpkins came from that one tiny pumpkin. The kids had a blast because it was messy, used markers to draw faces and take home seeds to plant the next year after they dried out. At the end of the year all of the kids said it was their favorite activity.
A day hemmed in prayer is less likely to unravel.

Winnie, please do not add me to the drawing but I wanted to participate in the conversation. I absolutely love pumpkins and anything pumpkin spice!I have grown my own pumpkins for 3 years now. The first year I lost all my pumpkins to army worms. Last year I ended up with a couple big pumpkins but one that was bigger than my little guy. This year I have 3 decent sized pumpkins but the plant has started to die. I think the pumpkins will be just fine for decorating our front porch since the cooler weather has arrived. But also this year I have mini pumpkins and a lot of them too! I haven't officially counted but my guess would be around 20. I am so excited to pick them and decorate the inside of my house with them. My kids also enjoy painting the little ones. I love making pumpkin rolls and plan to make another one tomorrow. My kids devour them. Everleigh and I enjoy pumpkin spice frappuccinos and pretty much anything else pumpkin spice flavored. Pumpkin pie is also a must for the fall time, but it always needs to be completely covered in whipping cream! If you can see any orange before you take a bite then there isn't enough whipping cream (Not cool whip that stuff is nasty) lol!
