I'm with you on the pumpkin flavored crap! Not *everything* has to be pumpkin flavored, ugh. You just can't get away from it =/

Oh but I LOVE everything pumpkin!

I don't mind pumpkin flavored shit, but I'm not overzealous about it. I used to be really zealous about Starbucks pumpkin spice lattes until I took the lid off once and saw that the coffee was actually orange. Orange! These days I'll settle for a pumpkin flavored cupcake.

Oh, I'm with you on the pumpkin flavored stuff too. I mean, I love pumpkin and pumpkin related based goods as much as the next person. But pumpkin flavored beer? Or 'pumpkin roasted' coffee beans? I want to tap people who come up with that stuff on the shoulder and be like, "Psst. There are other flavors associated with Fall *besides* pumpkin. It's harvest season, for crying out loud! Pick a flavor that would make your product taste, you know, better."

Yes to every one of them, plus one more. I hate, hate, hate that the sun goes down before my husband even gets home from work at 6:00.

I can't say I go out of my way for pumpkin flavored stuff, but I don't avoid it either. I'm glad for cooler weather and fall leaves, but I'm not a football fan, so that aspect of fall makes me roll my eyes. We grill year-round, snow and all!

Dry air, over heated everything, darkness and holiday decorations ALREADY! I'm with you!

I'll forgive you. :)

I don't like coffee but orange coffee would put me over the edge....

I'm the person who despises all things pumpkin flavored. I do like toasted pumpkin seeds but they aren't pumpkin flavored IMHO. I cover them with garlic sale, cajun seasonings etc.

The darker evenings just darkens my mood most of the time.

Robbie K said...

I'm not a fan of football either. My husband isn't around for dinner with his new job and I am not a griller so I am SOL.

Robbie K said...

It sucks doesn't it?

Robbie K said...

I won't hold your pumpkin love against you.

Barb said...

Exactly. Funny thing...right after I left the comment, my husband came home with some locally made pumpkin spice caramels for me. Ha! At least they aren't orange!

christina said...

Robbie K said...

Yeah for hating candy corn! It is REPULSIVE!!
