Got nearly 20 ounces, 566 grams for the more civilized.

Also some volunteer Jack-o-lantern pumpkins, I've had to pick them earlier than I wanted because a ground hog has devoured 6-7 pumpkins already.

You picked them with bare hands?! I wear gloves as the little hairs on the leaves and bines scratch my skin to shreds.

I've got thick skin from 20 years of handling cardboard boxes and metal shavings.

Towards the end I was thinking I should have worn long sleeves but it was 90°F (32°C) and that sounded like that would have been worse.
