The Punkin Patch





Because fall is a season out here, and I mean a real season, not just two days in between summer and winter when all of the leaves blow away, well, anyways, as I was saying, because fall is a real season out here, the Quebecois really celebrate fall by decorating with a harvest theme - lots of pumpkins and hay bales, gourds and corn still on the husk. It looks just great! I of course bought a bunch of pumpkins to fill the house with but did stop short at buying a hay bale due to the fact that we live in a condo. This tradition is one tradition I am bringing back to Edmonton even if it means that I have to dust the snow off of my pumpkins and hay bales set out on my front step each fall!
