Seriously American School of Dubai? Seriously? These are not pumpkins! These are gourds! Hahahaha- ASD recently promoted big their "pumpkin sale". The kids and I got excited and handed over our dirhams for 4 small pumpkins. When it was pick-up day all I could think was "seriously"? You should have seen the large ones! I think they were squash! However, in the past two weeks all the stores are getting in some really awesome genuine ORANGE pumpkins imported straight from the land that we love! Some of the stores that cater more to expats even have cute little pumpkin displays set up. I had fun with Miss Lilly yesterday at our Spinneys. There was a HUGE pumpkin the perfect size for her to sit on. Of course she charmed everyone around while posing for my picture session. BTW..Lillian Margaret is officially a walker! She is like a mini-Frankenstein toddling around here with her arms straight out in front of her. Let the fun begin!

Emily! Amy and I have to take you to a store that will make you drool. Ribbin galore, adorable home stuff, hilarious owner. Get ready to chat a while with her!!! Re: pumpkins, just sprayed some white and added silver glitter...so cute! Take those gourds and wrap fabulous ribbon around their stems (or pin in if stems are gone)! I know you'll make your squash the envy of the desert!
