Your photos are beautiful. <br /><br />I have three beautiful french red pumpkins; my first pumpkins ever! I read somewhere one let's the vines die before the fruit is ready to pick.

It does look pretty but is cheap and easy -- and you can tie to the fence.Svetlanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28216161.post-30402288172383234692009-09-12T21:07:30.129-04:002009-09-12T21:07:30.129-04:00Liisa, I'll post the recipe soon.

Or maybe I'll post the recipe sooner. it was really good.<br /><br />That's a great pumpkin story Michelle!<br /><br />Thanks Aunty Belle. It looks nice on your blog.<br /><br />And definitely, squashes grow wherever they want to. And IF they want to.<br /><br />I did see another bumper crop of Butternuts down the street from me this afternoon. As I drove by, the yard has about 20-30 manila colored squashes under a canopy of fading vines. I'll have to walk by soon with my camera. Maybe even find the gardener to say hi.kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10947233901412406068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28216161.post-9963915669428561822009-09-12T20:01:44.552-04:002009-09-12T20:01:44.552-04:00Kathy-

Your picture of it hanging on the fence looks so very similar to my post a few days ago. The only exception was it was a Buttercup.

The year before we had carved our pumpkins near the front porch. The next year, all of a sudden, this huge vine begins to grow...across the walkway, up onto the porch...everywhere. It was beautiful. And we got two pumpkins for Halloween...one big and one small. It was so great!Michelle @ Give a Girl a Fighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16020971191511530538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28216161.post-50709413260015626592009-09-12T14:38:33.973-04:002009-09-12T14:38:33.973-04:00Can you share your pumpkin soup recipe?
