Unfortunately, our garden has not done well this year. I blame myself for over watering it at first, however I have learned so much and I just know that next year our garden will be a success.
We have watched carefully as this "thing" has grown. I have had no idea what it is because it has grown from a seed that I dropped. Everyone agreed that it was a watermelon. After all, it looks just like one. I had a feeling that it might be a pumpkin, but because pumpkins are orange, I ruled that one out. After much deliberation, I decided to pick it so that we could eat it.
I let everyone make one last vote on what it was. They all said watermelon. As I started to cut, I was hoping so badly to see red. I made my first cut and no juice came out. That was a bad sign. Then I opened it up, and CRAP it was a pumpkin. It could have been a huge pumpkin too. Oh well, maybe next year!
