My Pumpkin Patch
It’s Autumn and time for autumnal activities, including getting ready for Halloween. I went out with some friends and we picked pumpkins and apples (and purchased some yummy caramel apples…my fave!) at a placed called Spoth's Farm. I haven't done this in years and it was quite a bit of fun considering it was a chilly day. After all was said and done, I came to some conclusions…
You know you’re BIG when it’s hard to cradle a few good sized pumpkins when you have your own to carry.
The place charges by the size, 8 dollars being the cost of a LARGE size pumpkin, and you could estimate your “pumpkins” would cost easily 20 dollars.
Your “best” friend jokingly says to the market cashier that you’re trying to shoplift their product, ie, their pumpkins.
The market cashier spends more time locked in what seems to be an awe-struck stare-down at your “pumpkins” versus what’s sitting on the counter waiting to be rung up.
And the final concluding thought…you know you’re BIG when you can stuff your “pumpkins” into a bushel basket…and they fit ever-so-snugly.
Happy Autumn!
