Harvest Time - A First And A Last

We had another bountiful harvest and we even had two more first for the season and a last.  We picked our first sweet potato and our first pumpkin.  I know it is a bit early for a pumpkin but the plant it was dying and I decided to save the pumpkin.  I am not sure how we can get it to last until Halloween and if we can't we will be finding out how to turn it into pumpkin pie.  We also picked the leaf lettuce for the last time this season, it has been good.  We also picked another huge watermelon.  I have no idea how much it weighs but it is heavy!  If this watermelon is as good as the last couple we are in for a real treat...and a lot of watermelon.  If you notice in the picture you will also see some more cucumbers!  Yup the pickle queens will return again!  How many quarts or pints will we make? Check back and see!
