She waited patiently for her boyfriend to pollinate her with his erm… pollen
Then the both of them shrivelled, died and baby pumpkin started to grow:

I rather cook up some pumpkin vein and leaves with “heh bee” or deep fried pumpkin flowers. ( like the Italian’s deep fried Zucchini flowers)

If i may add.
At times, when the boy-friend blooms earlier and the girl-friend is not yet ready….no baby pumpkin will come.
This usually happens if you plant just one vine.
