News Trend Picking Pumpkins|Actual

^ Nobody puts baby in a corner pumpkins.

^ Seattlites in winter pumpkins.

^ County fair prize-winning pumpkins.

^ Captain Hook and his mateys pumpkins

^ Sunshine and shadow pumpkins.

Here in Columbus, I'm visiting my daughter who wanted some pumpkins so off we went to scout out the neighborhood grocery stores and see what we could find.

Only a few years ago, this task was infinitely more simple.   A pumpkin picker’s choice was limited to the classic orange pumpkins. Some were a bit bigger than others; some more perfectly round than their oblong friends. That was about as complicated as it got.

But in today?S pumpkin marketplace, we find endless variety.

Pure whites.

Tiger stripes.

Lumps and bumps of all sorts.

Mini pumpkins.

Great pumpkins.

And on and on it goes.

It took us a fair amount of searching but eventually we found exactly what she wanted. And so another mother-daughter outing ended with some perfectly picked pumpkins.
