  • The pumpkin has landed

    In the flyer for next week's specials at a local supermarket were these items:

    Canned pumpkin
    Pumpkin spice coffee
    Pumpkin spice creamer
    Pumpkin cookies
    Pumpkin loaf cake
    Pumpkin pancake mix
    Nestle pumpkin spice morsels
    Pumpkin spice swirl bread
    Pumpkin pasta sauce
    Pumpkin seeds
    Pumpkin spice cheesecake
    Fudge stripe pumpkin spice cookies
    Pumpkin spice Oreos and Belvita biscuits
    Pumpkin preserves
    Pumpkin eggnog
    Pumpkin ice cream
    Pumpkin spice bagels
    Pumpkin cereal
    Pumpkin instant oatmeal
    Pumpkin spice pretzels
    5 brands of pumpkin beer and one pumpkin ale

    This is, I assume, in addition to actual pumpkins
    When you start at zero, everything's progress.

      That reminds me, I need to get my traditional pumpkin soon.
      Eh, one day I'll have something useful here. Until then, have a cookie or two.

              My guess is in pumpkin coma from all the pumpkin stuff out there right now.

              Me, except for the beer I had at the brewery last weekend, I refuse to get into pumpkin, till October.

                I don't know about that. I haven't seen ANYTHING about pumpkins in of themselves yet. Everything else though.

                  HI!!

                  Already had my first pumpkin pie chai and have my first trip to the pumpkin patch planned!!!



                  Victory, no coma because semester started late, we're just now winding down enough for me to amp up the pumpkin production, but I, too, won't get REALLY serious until October.

                  Right now, I'm finishing up the last of the apples from apple season here.

                    O.o I thought my work having pumpkin spice cappuccino on our machine, and pumpkin cake donuts in the donut case was bad. At this rate, this pumpkin thing is spreading like a disease or something! Apple is a fall flavor, too. Why don't we see more of that? Not knocking the pumpkins, just making a point.

                      Just got done putting a pumpkin beer into the fermentor. Mine go to the pumpkin and not so much on the spice. It should be ready for drinking for Halloween. Also this will be intered in a compition (my first).

                        My bar has not one, not two, but THREE pumpkin beers on draft at the moment. And has for some time.

                          I tried the Alaskan Pumpkin Ale for the first time at our employee barbecue yesterday. It was Ok, but nothing to write home about.

                            Apple is a common flavour because they can be easily stored and preserved for year round use. Pumpkin is much, much more difficult so it doesn't last much beyond christmas.

                              I'm not sure about the pumpkin pasta sauce. Part of me wants to try it (sounds like it would go well with some good-quality reasonably plain ravioli) but I know if mom sees it in the house she'd kill me.
