a postcard from the pumpkin patch...

We have passed by a few pumpkin patches on our travels...and I couldn't resist a photo or two. Since today seems like an appropriate day to post pumpkin pic's...I'll share a few with you.


Pete's Pumpkin Patch lies right next to Highway 101...in Camarillo, California.


In San Francisco...the home of the original sourdough bread...we happened upon sourdough jack-o-lanterns. They looked quite friendly...but I opted for the traditional loaf.


The Mickey and Minnie pumpkins looked most pleasant...just as a pumpkin face should look. There are a lot of things associated with today that I have no use for...but a friendly pumpkin seems a nice offering.


May you and all your munchkins have a happy 'pumpkin day'...

  2. There's something very cheery about a big orange pumpkin! I've got one sitting on a bed of maple leaves by the front door. I loved the sourdough offerings!

  5. Pumpkins have always been a favoite of mine --not only do they look cheerful, they taste so good in soups and muffins :-)

    I visited that same bakery in SF and had clam chowder served in a sough dough bread bowl. So delicious!
