"I've never really collected anything before," she says, "but now I've got the start of a really good collection of pumpkins." One of her latest pumpkins is a textile one, made from chenille, which she found at a small craft show near Zoar, Ohio, on the eastern edge of Amish country. (That pumpkin is on the far left.) She's got some rules about her pumpkins, though.

"They have to be happy. No sad faces, or scary faces, or creepy faces. I like them all to smile." She found the pumpkin candle and the tin holder that it sits on (just to the right of center) at Lehman's in Kidron, Ohio. When she was asked if she had any antique or vintage pumpkins, her face lit up. "Oh, no, you know, I don't. I hadn't even thought about looking for vintage ones. What a great idea!"
She loves pumpkin-based recipes too, and she's sharing one of her favorites below.
