    I don’t understand the pumpkin obsession in fall. To me fall smells like leaves, and wood and smoke and rain. Pumpkins never had much to do with it :)

      It’s really about the pumpkin pie *spices* more than the pumpkin, as near as I can tell, but I’ve never had a pumpkin spice latte and probably never will, so I am not an expert on the subject.

        I never really got what’s so great about pumpkin pie either in all 6 years of thanksgivings so far :)) that must be the problem.
        But if we talk about lemon meringue pie, hey you got my attention .

          Ha!

          I really do like pumpkin pie. I just don’t want it in my coffee, and I still haven’t decided if I want it on my person either.

      I love all baked goods pumpkin…bread, pie, muffins, etc. in a latte, nope. On my body? Probably not.

      Agree! I would add a smell of mushrooms and damp soil. I also never understood pumpkin spices craze in the fall, plus pumpkin was never my favourite food to cook and eat, although couple years ago I found 2 great recipes without pumpkin spices : apple pumpkin pie with cinnamon and raisins and cream of pumpkin soup with garlic and cognac ( or extra dry vermouth) on chicken base- YUM to both!

        I resolved not to buy any more shower gels and look what you made me do!

          But better I take the blame for a shower gel than a bottle of perfume! Less money, more likely to get used up before it spoils.

      Agree — that is exactly what caught my eye.

      It’s really pretty although I ended up with just the shower gel and hand cream. The body butter, admittedly where the visuals show up best, was too overwhelming scent-wise and since I don’t typically use scented lotion (except the B&BW Mousse to Oil), this was totally out of the question.
