How to use pumpkin in a sentence?

  1. Michelle Carlbert:

    My plans are to start exploring what my new hometown of Kansas City has to offer in the way of Halloween celebrations. I'm going to try and visit a pumpkin patch and probably some scare parks, as for Halloween night, I may go out to see what the local neighborhoods are up to as I'm currently in an apartment and likely won't get any trick-or-treaters. Once I have a house again, I'll go back to decorating it and passing out candy on Halloween night, which I love to do.

  2. Marc Evan and Chris Soria:

    Pumpkins are definitely hot right now, they used to be just about Halloween but with the rise of pumpkin spice and carvers like us, it’s become a fall seasonal thing which is definitely exciting.
