Although Charlie Brown would argue with me on the grandness of this pumpkin, I would nevertheless want to take an image of it. While on a recent shoot (that had nothing to do with pumpkins and fruits of the autumn season) I saw this, big guy, tucked away in a vegetable garden.

I love the fall season, for many things, and one of them are pumpkins for sure. Weather they are decorated for Halloween or cut up and made into a soup. And on that note, I want to share with you this awesome recipe for pumpkin (it's actually a butternut squash) and potato cream soup I posted a while ago.
Here is the link
What are your favorite gifts of the fall season?

Interesting Autumn shots.
ReplyDeletevery interesting pumpkin, i like its markings and the soup looks and sounds wonderful
ReplyDeleteforgot to answer your question. here in Florida what we like best about autumn is the break in humidity and heat from the long very hot summer and also a decrease in Bugs
ReplyDeletePretty pumpkin! Thanks for sharing the recipe, it sounds delicious! Have a happy day!
ReplyDeleteperfect symbol of autumn. :)
ReplyDeleteNow that's a beautiful pumpkin and the soup looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteNyammi, weiß du, ich liebe Kürbiscremesuppe, habe heuer auch schon zweimal gehabt. Liebe Grüße
ReplyDeleteI love pumpkins for the same reasons as you: they are decorative and you can make excellent soup with them!
ReplyDeletegreetings
Mmmmm, I love butternut squash. The soup sounds delicious.
ReplyDeleteCute pumpkin! Mmmm...I'm going to check out your recipe.
ReplyDeleteI love Autumn. That is a grand pumpkin! We are having "pumpkin" soup for dinner tonight. One of our faves.
ReplyDeleteThat's easy to answer: the colours.
ReplyDeleteThat is a different kind of pumpkin, Mersad. In my part of the USA, they are usually all orange. That is a decent size, but many here are bigger.
ReplyDeleteThat soup looks mighty good...and so fancy the swirling!
ReplyDeleteWhat's my favorite part of the Autumn Season....well, Halloween of course, but I like everything pumpkin, the scents like a fireplace, pine, leaves that are getting musty on the damp ground, the colors...so much. A great season...
Autumn is my favorite time of the year! I like your pumpkin/potato soup, Mersad--it sounds delicious!
ReplyDeleteI am coming back to write all these recipes down. I love Autumn's changes: the colors, the colder air, the sense of celebration of the different holidays and time with family and friends, pumpkin pie, pecan pie...well, just pie! :-)
ReplyDeleteFür mich gibt es da nichts Besonderes d.h. nur so dass ich gewisse Gemüse ja auch nur zu gewissen Zeiten bekommen kann. Ansonsten mag ich Alles das ganze Jahr über.
ReplyDeleteHerzliche Grüsse
N☼va
