Michigan Pumpkins

Michigan PumkinsOctober is the time of the year you see pumpkins all over. You see them in Michigan fields,  farmer’s markets, and on the door steps of many homes.

Wikipedia states: “The word pumpkin originates from the word pepon, which is Greek for large melon.” The pumpkin is a gourd like squash.

During this fall season, pumpkins will be carved into Jack-o-lanterns for Halloween. Also pumpkins can be made into breads, muffins, soups and my personal favorite, pumpkin pies.

I came across a new favorite- the dancing pumpkins.
