Tiny Niece, Tiny Pumpkin


It’s the spookiest weekend of the year! And the markets are in on the fun! So hit these scary Halloween Markets today (and tomorrow), and enjoy fall for the short time we have it. And here’s a hint: if you buy a sugar pumpkin at your farmers market, you can carve it or paint it and then turn it into a pie!
