Pumpkin Patch Tradition

Hubby wanted to show you all the inside of a yellow tomato.

As soon as we got home from Church I made a “EVERYTHING BUT THE KITCHEN SINK” Raw Salad. I chopped up a ton of veggies and fruit and came up with….

this! 

• spinach + romaine
• jicama ( love this stuff)
• chopped apple
• grapes
• 1/2 yellow tomato
• mushrooms
• handful of nuts

I then blended up an avocado, lime, pepper, cilantro and EVOO in the Vita-Mix an attempt to try and make a cilantro avocado dressing. It came out a little thicker then I would have..looks like a GM on my salad…LOL

Non the less it was AMAZING!!!! 

After lunch Hubby and I headed over to the Pumpkin Patch to get ourselves a pumpkin to carve, a McCormick Family tradition.

So many choices! 

Hubby and I decided on this one!!

I also got a little one for decor. 

They had a lot of other things to choose from too, Gourds GALORE!

They also had some free recipes to choose from, I plan on making the pumpkin butter recipe that’s in there.

What a fun day already!! I feel like this has been such a productive yet FUN weekend, and it’s  not over yet. I am off to teach kickboxing tonight and then stay tuned for dinner..

Do you guys have a pumpkin patch in your town? Any fall traditions in your house?
