Mother Nature Mixup

An odd fruit in the garden. Again this year we planted pumpkin seeds (from last years harvest) and we also planted cucumbers. Well, someone got mixed up. We do have a nice looking pumpkin growing up but we also have a strange looking fruit which we guess is a cross between the pumpkin and the cucumber. The bees must have been confused by the flowers and fertilized the with the wrong pollen. The mix creates quite and interesting offspring. Not sure what we'll do with it as it is hard to tell when it is ripe.
