lucky >v< ) do you guys have pumpkin carving competitions then?

[Lemon Cheesecake]

parties or specific Halloween events do, we don't have any big events around where we live. But we do have a biggest pumpkin contest and some local farmers grow giant pumpkins - like 4-500 pounds sizes.

sounds interesting :> actually i was reading one of my little sister's books once, it was a story about a little girl genetically modifying all her vegetables to win a competition. she ended up taking it too far, with tomato plants growing pre-canned tomatoes, and berry bushes growing english breakfasts...

p funny. anyway, that's gigantic, gosh.

you can sit on giant pumpkins. When I first saw one I realized where the idea of turning a pumpkin into Cinderella's coach came from!

there's a lot of pumpkin based contests on the go around where I live right now to be honest.

For a long time pumpkins did not seem "fashionable", then they kept creeping into the menu's and now there is like an explosion of items made with pumpkin or pumpkin spice flavoring

[murmurlade]

It is October... Pumpkin's time to shine!

[Lemon Cheesecake]

i wonder if anyone has pumpkin flavored pudding? I know I like the pumpkin ice cream... I saw pumpkin mochi, which I still need to buy

[murmurlade]

I think I'm going to puke from all these pumpkin flavoured treats >q< My friend went on a baking spree...... eurgh.. my stomach... go on and enjoy halloween without me---
*collapses*

how much pumpkin can one person eat, really, before they explode from too much I mean. Can you overdose on pumpkin?

I did put some pumpkin spice flavored syrup in my coffee today. Saved myself $5 from going to Starbucks. How come Costco doesn't serve coffee, btw?

[murmurlade]

You'd see pumpkins instead of stars when you pass out
No idea what costco is. Sounds like a supermarket tho. Why would a supermarket serve coffee?

[Maro]

costco serves coffee-like stuff though in their cafeteria ovo;


man oh man so many pumpkin things... i swear i did see pumpkin pudding the other day

[Lemon Cheesecake]

our costco doesn't serve coffee just a frozen mocha drink

I wonder if anyone will have any pumpkin specials on Halloween day?

[Maro]

i'd say they probably did ovo

Ok, pumpkin is a big part of the American Thanksgiving too, so I picked up some pumpkin pancake and waffle mix to try out for Thanksgiving breakfast (or sooner if I decide I just can't wait!). I think I'd rather have them as pancakes... I wonder what a complimentary topping should be...whipped cream and what?
