CAPE GIRARDEAU, MO (KFVS) - Viewer Lisa Hacker from Perryville, Mo. sent us these pictures to cNews of pumpkins she painted for Cape High School and Cape Junior High School.

Hacker says these are heirloom field pumpkins grown on their farm and weigh about 20 pounds. She says a Cape Central football fan requested the pumpkins for decoration at the school and they took about 4 1/2 hours each to paint.

She says the pumpkins should last several months if kept in a cool, dry place.

Send us pictures from your community to cNews and we'll feature them on your county site. Don't forget to include the time and location of the photo, along with your name.

CARBONDALE, IL (KFVS) - Pink Ribbon Bagels celebrate 10 years of fighting breast cancer.

In October, in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Panera sells the Pink Ribbon Bagel with a portion of the proceeds from each bagel going to a variety of breast cancer causes throughout the country.

Panera says donations from the sale of the bagel have now raised more than $1 million for breast cancer charities. They say they hope to make 2011 the largest year for donations ever.

The concept began in 2001 when Sue Stees, co-owner of 18 Panera Bread franchises and a breast cancer survivor began searching for ways to help other women fighting the same disease. She developed the Pink Ribbon Bagel and sold 27,000 of them in the first year.
