Pumpkins and Cinderella.
Once, my son Samuel sowed some pumpkin seeds. It grew into the pumpkin vine and he got two pumpkins. Not bad for a first time gardener.
We don't eat pumpkins. The bigger one was actually the second one that grew. I took them to school. I gave one to a colleague. I taught my favourite fairy tale. The kids had fun enacting Cinderella.

They are pretty impressive pumpkins to have grown, perfect for Cinderella. I enjoyed reading why you don't eat pumpkins - they are for the pigs! I love pumpkin and am happy not to have been told otherwise growing up!
