This pumpkin won me the carving contest at work.

We've been adopted.

Yay farmer's market! I got this bouquet for five bucks!

Mmm... root vegetables. We've had a very colorful diet lately.

Mmm... yes, that's a blue ribbon on the can, folks. We made some beer-butt chicken. I'll post a recipe on the food blog soon, I promise.
