Macro Monday


Andy asked me to do Macro Monday this week, therefore the photography is not what our readers are used to seeing. Well, I do the best I can with my small point and shoot camera and lack of photography talent. I think this will probably be an easy one. Any ideas??







 This most likely gives it away!









A pumpkin gourd!!!

Happy first Monday of fall!

  3. Thanks Kathy and Brenda. Glad I was able to fool you ... at least for a minute! Brenda, I will be glad to save the seeds ... but will need your guidance on how to safely dry them so I can mail them to you.

  4. Oh...easy to save seed..just wash a few seeds off in a kitchen strainer..sit seeds on a paper towel and turn once or twice over a few days till they are dry and then, take off paper towel and leave in a dish somewhere in a warm environment for a few weeks and that's it. Yipppeee...seeds please..thank you!

  5. I will give it a try Brenda. Andy laughed, we are so bad at any and all things related to gardening ... he said it may be safer to just to mail you the entire pumpkin, that way we can't mess up!! ha ha!!
