History of pumpkins
Pumpkins date back to ancient Egypt, where Cleopatra grew large pumpkins
known as Atlantis Giants. In despair over a fruit going down in late
August on which she had pinned her hopes, she committed suicide on
August 30, 30 BC, by holding an asp to her bosom. Twice. Her first
attempt failed because she did it asp-backward.
