He does it to me every year in August
he either puts a sign up on the road that says
"PumPkins For Sale"
or places one right up front,somehow it gives him a kick
to see me just about crash the car stopping to see if
he has any to sell at this time of the year.

Oh you are making me long to get my fall decor out and pick the bittersweet. That recipe sounds decadent! I love pumpkin!!
I am so enjoying this chill today. I even baked pork chops and made stuffing from scratch.
Have a great weekend!
I just love those pumpkins, they are beautiful. We don't get real pumpkins here until late in Sept. usually. We can find them earlier at Walmart but sometimes those don't last very well. The pu,pkin farm doesn't even open until mid to late Sept. and I'm in pumpkin heaven when they open those gates. I've got to try that fudge it looks yummy!
Yummy! I'm gonna have to try that fudge:) Thanks for sharing!
Isn't it just Grand...

Getting chilly here too, Connie. Cathy showed me the picture of your hubby's prize pumpkin that was in the paper! Wow!
One of these days I'll get to your new shop.

We have a huge green pumpkin in our garden also! Thanks so much for the fudge recipe! I'm going to try it! Here's hoping you can get your pumpkins soon! :-D
Received a few emails about the fudge recipe, just want to be clear,I used canned 100% PumPkin...I think it was Libby. This is the way I have always made it....I have never used
real PumPkin. xox
Hi Connie!!
I've missed you. LOVE all the photos and will probably be making that fudge real soon. I just sent a link to my friend/cousin. She will love this recipe and your house! Wish I could be there to sample a little. Someday...
Sending warm hugs to you my friend. Have a beautiful day! Jenn
Mercy has sent us all over to check out your fudge. I am very excited to try this recipe. thanks for posting it.
Hi Again Connie,
I may have certifiably lost my mind. Cathy says she never showed me any newspaper picture of your husband with a prize pumpkin that he had grown. I must have been thinking of someone else, but I have no idea who!!!
Joanne
Thanks so much for the pumpkin fudge recipe. I had bought some of this fudge when we visited our daughter in OK a few years ago. I loved it and this sounds like a good recipe.
