The Grape Pumpkin

No, it wasn't a face this time. But it is almost autumn.
And it does look like a pumpkin. And I couldn't help but hear Linus's
words ringing in my ears...with a little adaptation. :)
"Just wait til next year, Charlie Brown. You'll see! Next year at this same time, I'll find the pumpkin patch that is real sincere and I'll sit in that pumpkin patch until the Grape Pumpkin appears. He'll rise out of that pumpkin patch and he'll fly through the air with his bag of toys. The Grape Pumpkin will appear and I'll be waiting for him! "
~Linus van Pelt
It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown

  12. haha grape face is jealous now
    But I'm sure he'll get over it somehow
    That is really neat
    How it's taken the pumpkin beat
    I guess Charlie Brown will no longer frown
    And take the grape pumpkin all over town

  13. Pat ~

    I expanded my food face gallery
    to include grape pumpkin anyway
    although he isn't really a face
    he feels at home in that space
    with banana, strawberry and melon, too
    at the risk of being called a loon.
    and of course grape turned raisin
    they're all part of the relation.
    lol...

    Keep my ocd and stomach tame
    Maybe I should pretend they all have faces
    Then I can bear you recipe cases..hahaha

  32. I think you pay more attention to your food than most of us.

    It really does go with that saying.

    Do you think it went flying while you were asleep?

    God bless.
