So here is the stem of that pumpkin beneath the tomatoes. It clambered up the fence....
and one branch went over the top...
and one stayed on my side, but alas it has NO fruit!
But on Next Door's side....
she has a beautiful dusty orange Cinderella type pumpkin happily growing on a little table. Is this FAIR? Did I not {sort of} plant it? Am I not watering it? Shouldn't it be on my side?
You can bet next year. if I get anything resembling a pumpkin I'm going to keep all the branches on my side. Hmmmph!
This is what WE got from the seedlings: Acorn squash. Double Hmmmph! I mean Acorn squash are ok, but we can buy them cheaply at the store whilst those pumpkins cost me $5.00 each!

And in other news: My baby is coming home from England tomorrow! Yippee! She has been gone 3 whole months. I talked to her yesterday on the phone and she's had all kinds of fun, but I think she's happy to be coming home. I'm thinking I'm happy she's coming home too.
