Today I had a Pumpkin Spice Oreo cookie. It tasted like everything good about fall. It evoked memories of the cooler weather with golden leaves drifting towards the ground. It made me think of being curled up in a blanket, watching Thanksgiving festivities on television, and talking about past Thanksgivings with my dad that we spent with my late mother. How it will be his first Thanksgiving with his new wife, and the family get togethers we'll spread across the holidays. It also tasted really REALLY good. Even though pumpkin spice isn't usually my thing. Yay to delicious cookies and yay to fall! I'm ready.

There is warmth to pumpkin spice that appeals to most people, and draws us back in time to great memories.

I usually do not want Oreos, or Pumpkin Spice, unless I add my own spices and pumpkin, however, that does sound good, dark slighly bitter chocolate with spicy sweet pumpkiny goodness.

I wish I could taste to know how good it is but we have no such kind of Oreo cookies here yet.

I've noticed this week that pumpkin spice is starting to creep up everywhere now! It seems to be in just about every single product! Hey, maybe when I go to the store this weekend to buy some deodorant, they'll have pumpkin spice scent! lol

It is wonderful how one little cookie could bring back so many memories. Fall is a nice time of year even though everything is dying. :(

I love fall and I love the fact that the weather is starting to cool off. It does not snow that often here. So I hope it does not. I like the rain and it rains here so that is good.
