Punkin Patch

In the spirit of the season, here are a few punkin jokes:
How do you mend a broken Jack-o-lantern?
With a pumpkin patch!

Why do jack-o-lanterns have stupid smiles on their faces?
You'd have a stupid smile, too, if you had just had all your brains scooped out!


And some punkin facts:
The tradition of pumpkin carving originally started with the carving of turnips. When the Irish immigrated to the U.S., they found pumpkins a plenty, and they were much easier to carve for their ancient holiday.

In early colonial times, pumpkins were used as an ingredient for the crust of pies, not the filling.

Pumpkins were once recommended for removing freckles and curing snake bites.

The largest pumpkin ever grown weighed 1,140 pounds.


Happy carving!
