A gardener’s mistake.

We had two thriving pumpkin plants.

My goal being to grow my Thanksgiving pies.

We now have one.

Oops.

We’ve made a gardener’s mistake.

We cut the wrong spot.

Jared was shocked in my reaction.

In fact, I even started laughing.

I couldn’t do anything to fix the mistake.

I cannot travel back in time.

Earlier in the day, Jared accidentally tossed the leftovers I had planned for dinner.

I walked in the door right as it happened.

He looked at me and knew he made a mistake.

I laughed.

So when the pumpkin was killed a couple hours later…

I laughed again.

We still have one pumpkin going strong.

Pie is still in our future.
