Contest Winner!

Our pumpkins are done growing, the one I photographed weeks ago has barely grown, so I went ahead and picked it, as it was the largest. Perhaps because of the chaos going on with getting ready to move, the garden has been mostly neglected (thankfully there’s not much to neglect)…if I could have tended to it more, I think I would have gotten more impressive results.

Our largest pumpkin was 7.4 lbs, making everyone’s guesses too much! But I’m not the corperate type to say no one wins :lol So, I’ll give it to the person closest, which was that chick of http://584blog.blogspot.com/ I’ll email you for you information to get your gift certificate out soon!

Looking ahead (to Idaho?)

Eww! Idaho! Most of my readers probably don’t know that prior to 1.5 years ago, we lived in Idaho. I hate it there but it looks like we’re going back. Hello greenhouses, row covers, frost, cold and brr. I never got a garden going there, my seedlings all succumbed to that icky fungus. I know so much more now, I’m sure I’ll have success, but not like here! It’ll at least be a challenge. More likely an exercise in frustration, but a challenge none the less. Garden of Eatin will live on! I just have to think of content for the blog for the winter…. not that good of an article writer, but I’m sure I can come up with something.
