Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Most years, my parents grow pumpkins in their vegetable garden. One year a pumpkin got lost behind some particularly large leaves and was left to grow for an extra month after its brethren had been removed from the vine. By the time we discovered it, it was huge (and starting to shuffle its way off this mortal coil). It seems that our pumpkin was nothing in comparison to the pumpkin that took the honors today at the Half-Moon Bay Pumpkin Festival Weigh-off. Clocking in at 1,524 pounds, that pumpkin was grow by Thad Starr from Pleasant Hill, OR. For bringing the largest pumpkin to the festival, Staff gets a prize of $6 a pound for his gigantic gourd. That comes out to a not-so-shabby $9,144.
The five largest pumpkins will be on display at the festival through the weekend.
