call me stupid, immature, a ditz, whatever... but i really DON'T see what so great about growing pumpkins!! i mean, it's a VEGETABLE!! i'm probably going to get all these "unhelpful note" thing now, but please!! i guess it's kind of interesting reading about how passionate this person is about them, and how she "overcame the odds" and all that (which actually irritated me after a while), and i did start to really hate ceril (that's the only reason i read the whole thing) but when it comes down to it, this book is about a vegetable. not even one i particuarly like. oh well, if you like this, you like it, but you know what i think!!
