A Personal Note from Janine
I just bought my first pumpkin of the season, and every time I head to the grocery store, I can’t resist adding another one to my collection. I must admit, I miss having a pumpkin patch to visit.
Back when we lived in Seattle, we were surrounded by farms, and I’ll never forget a trip to a local pumpkin patch with our toddlers. We grabbed a wagon and eagerly filled it with pumpkins we had carefully chosen.
My son was determined to pull that wagon full of pumpkins himself. But he quickly realized that our load was way too heavy, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t budge it. Naturally, this led to a full-blown meltdown right there in the pumpkin patch.
Then, his younger sister confidently marched up to the wagon, grabbed the handle, and pulled with all her might. To everyone’s surprise, she actually managed to move it, and just like that, the tears stopped.
I still chuckle at that moment. It’s memories like these that make me so grateful we took the time to do fun things with our kids. We could’ve easily found a million excuses not to, but I’m so glad we made the effort.
Wishing you a happy Saturday, and I hope you enjoy this fun pumpkin recipe edition!
Cheers,
