Ok- how about this - I'm a female - I produce eggs, & the rest you know.
Now I can produce either a female or male. Sooooo - I correlated this
with my pumpkin - who is a guy pumpkin.  Besides, that's what makes it
fun & me happy :-)  So MR. Pumpkin & I are going to the fair today. 

Oh, and my hubby called our local paper & told them about me & my Mr.
Pumpkin & they came out yesterday & took our picture. We may be in the
paper this week.  Now I'm really sweating it cause he's told everyone
that I have a 550+ lb pumpkin & I'm just praying that my measurements &
the charts are fairly accurate.  I'm having nightmares that I get to the
fair & he's only 200 lbs. I'll have to go "underground"......

Well, time to go tenderly cut the vine.

Bev from N.C. (and MR. Pumpkin too)
