Time to join in once again with Dawn’s annual “Festival of Leaves” autumn challenge where she invites us to share our photos of the autumn (fall) season.

Cornwall in Colours 
A pumpkin says it all about October.
(Even though I have nothing to do with Halloween.)
Best wishes, Pete.
No, Halloween is not on my radar too. Fortunately there is no trick and treat here.
Ah, I love pumpkins. But to eat, not to carve faces on.
It’s been a while since I carved a pumpkin. but I always used the flesh to make a pumpkin pie.
I’ve never ‘got’ pumpkin pie. I prefer a soup or a curry. But there are better, tastier pumpkins than the Jack o’Lantern, and we don’t seem to sell them much here.
Like Margaret, we love our pumpkins cooked – delicious. They are so versatile. A big Queensland blue pumpkin makes the best soup. (blue skin, not blue inside)
Blue skin? Weird! No autumn leaves yet then, Jude?
Not yet Jo. We don’t have many trees in this part of Cornwall, the closest woodland is still green. Some of the NT gardens have trees from the US which will be turning.

I don’t think I have bought an actual pumpkin since my kids were young. I always used the flesh to make soup or pumpkin pie.
Delicious!
Beautiful looking pumpkin
Not mine 😁 in the garden we visited recently.
These pumpkins make a great picture.
Seen in an NT garden. Sadly not mine.
Ah, delicious pumpkins (rich in Vitamins A, B & C), we love to put these in a dish! Somehow, on appearance, ours don’t look as nice as yours, but I suppose it’s the taste that matters!
Unfortunately this isn’t actually mine, but it was the biggest one growing in the garden we visited last week. I tend to buy and eat butternut squash.
That is the prettiest pumpkin!
