PUMPKINS ARE ORANGE~Funny~Down to Earth Humor

Hi Carole,

>I just finished reading a book by Jack Breckenridge called "Pumpkins are
>Orange" and I was wondering if you had read it. It is fantastic. Uproariously
>funny. I couldn't put it down. Of course now my kids are convinced I have
>lost it. They kept peeking in my room because I was sitting all alone
>laughing out loud. The characters are so real I caught myself talking to the
>book on numerous occasions. I felt like my dad was telling me a story. It is
>really great!!

I totally agree. I am reading this book on my lunch breaks at work. The
techs in the shop think I have gone totally NUTS. I sit quietly at my work
bench, eat lunch and than they hear chuckles, periods of quiet, than bursts
of laughter. The techs have sworn to bring in the fellas with the white
jackets ~chuckle~ This book is not only affordable but a nice escape from
our hectic world.

>If you haven't read it you should check it out, it is fantastic.

You can also find Jack on the Pumpkin Page of my web site.
It would be interesting to have the Heavy Hitters read the book and see how
they relate to this book. 

Jack is not only a great writer but a fantastic artist. Take a look:

Crop Info:
We are just about ready to put in our seeds. Hot weather has hit overnight.
We are spraying for weeds and the zillion of voluntary gourd plants that
are coming up. 

I have my Giant Bushel Gourd seeds from P&P Seeds. I also so have giant
pumpkin seeds from the Farmer Gus :)

Have a good Day and read a good book and may all your pumpkins be Giants !!!!
