The Sugar Baby pumpkins that I used to grow for pies were a 60-70 day
crop- unlike the big ones that are 120+.

I can't find "Sugar Baby" -- but further thought & a bit of poking
around makes me think these were more like 90 day pumpkins. I
planted them 2nd week of June & first frost was usually mid-Sept.

This page has a bunch of pumpkin varieties and mentions the vine,
which reminded me that these things I used to grow were 'bush'
pumpkins.

Thanks for the search. Typing "Sugar Baby" into Google was quite
titillating ;O)

We have an productive cumquat tree. My wife went googling "cumquat
jam". You do get some recipes but not all are to do with boiling
fruit with sugar.

DAVID, WHY DO YOU HATE AMERICA?!!

Ah, there, that feels better ;O)


I don't. Why did you say that? I don't see the connection.

Do you have any sense of humor?


I still don't get it. Is it an allusion to some sitcom or a local
politician perhaps? Never mind.
