Picking Pumpkins


What attracts so many people to pumpkin patches? Can it be we know fall has arrived or can it be a chance to spend time with family? This small pumpkin patch can be found on a corner street with many pumpkins and flowers everywhere. After working 12 hours I was going pumpkin picking with my husband and daughter no matter what!! Can you tell by the pictures it was lightly raining and cold?

If you are driving a long and happen to see a pumpkin patch, just pull over and enjoy picking a few pumpkins--but most of all enjoy the time with your family.

Downtown Greenville Part 1

For good food and family fun, St Francis Fall for Greenville might be the place for you!(http://www.fallforgreenville.net/). This week-end, Main Street will close for three days and 30 to 40 restaurants from the Greenville area will line the street and cook some of the best food Greenville has to offer.

Also, if you have children there is great entertainment and games to keep them busy. I was not able to attend this year, but my husband took our daughter Friday evening and he told me you could not hardly move due to all the people. I feel most people went Friday evening due to the weather (rain all week-end)

If you pull up the website, you will find pictures and all the information you need on this great family festival.

Autumn

Autumn is my favorite time of the year! If you ever come to Greenville or Travelers Rest, SC just take highway 25 to the North Carolina line and you will see what I mean. Beautiful Mountains everywhere and when the leaves do change it adds to the excitement. I also love picking out pumpkins with my daughter and decorating our yard with new fall flowers which my husband takes great pleasure in planting.





I am going to try my hand at baking and will start with pumpkin bread and sweet potato muffins. To me these foods are good warm foods for the autumn weather--what do you think?
