Albino Pumpkin Knows All

Today marks the last CSA dropoff of the season...and it was a good run. I'm gonna miss my fresh, local produce this winter season (and winter's surely a-comin' soon). The pumpkin you see here came in last week's shipment. It enjoyed a day or so on our kitchen table before Janelle put the craft to it and rendered it into a readily edible, pumpkin-muffin form.

Did you know that muffins were invented in 1842 by a runaway slave named "Tink?" No, wait. I mean: Did you know that pumpkins were first discovered on the rim of a collapsed solar system six million light years from our own? Er...no. I have no idea where anything comes from, really, except that some things seem to arrive in envelopes and packages while others do not.
