I was wandering past our local Dunkin Donuts and saw a sign for pumpkin spice donuts. 1. Its is too early. 2. get off my lawn! Those of us who live on the East Coast know that a neighborhood for Dunink Donights is 4 people. But pumpkin spice now is too early. That got me thinking, I know, I get frustrated with Christmas stuff coming out the first week of November. Am I getting old? Is it just me?

The earlier they put stuff out, the better chance they have that you'll purchase more. Pumpkin spice in 90 degree heat is a bit much.

I saw a great meme on Facebook. It was a gray ribbon and titled “gray pride,” then it said, “We’re old! We’re tired! Get off our lawn!” It may be early for pumpkin spice, but look at the bright side: it keeps the Christmas stuff out of the stores for another month.

Yes as @Gillygirl has already said the Christmas stuff is already out on the shelves in the UK. Thankfully they have yet to start playing that awful christmas music. I wish our shops would refrain till November!
