The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for October 04, 2023

Ugh? UGH??

Yes. Yes it is, Charlie Brown. Sorry to say, we have to endure it all over again.

And yet they keep going for it time and time again.

I like a nice hot Pumpkin Spice Latte. Think I’ll have one tomorrow!

the next is Peanuts Christmas Pageant featuring Mariah Carey

He who controls the pumpkin spice controls Thanksgiving …

Good Grief!

I told mom he got hit in the head and started talking crazy.

Entemanns has pumpkin cake with icing, but that is as far as I’ll go. These are funny though.

When the Moon hits your eye/ Like a big pumpkin pie/ That’s Amore …

The motto of retailers seems to be “If it’s worth doing, it’s worth overdoing.”

At least they don’t need to go to the field all night.

I’m amused by how polarizing pumpkin spice can be. I fall into the camp of “pumpkin spice is great, Charlie Brown!”

I Dune’t like that spice.

How about “A Charlie Brown Gingerbread Christmas”?

Time for my annual Pumpkin Pie Blizzard at Dairy Queen.

T’is a horror.

I first thought the cookies said condoms.

Feet first into hell, Woodstock…

RATS!!!

Linus looks stoked about it though.

Did I mention the sign at the car repair place that advertised pumpkin spice oil changes?

I invariably hate unnecessarily flavored coffees, mixes, “seasonal products”, etc. But for some strange reason I absolutely love the pumpkin spice flavor. Maybe it’s because it’s associated with my favorite season, autumn, who knows. But from the first leaves turning through Thanksgiving I can’t get enough. Go figure…

Good gorram grief…

They took all the specials and moved them to obscure channels! How sad to take away such wonderful stories!

Instead they’d rather show mindless shows, reality, games and sports,

I wonder if Star Bucks will ever have a “Pumpkin” flavored Coffee? No, not “Pumpkin Spice”, just “Pumpkin”!

Love the pumpkin Tide, toilet paper and tuna.

It’s overdone and overrated.

It’s the Grape Pumpkin jelly, Charlie Brown!

I make a very healthy pumpkin bread but I usually wait until it’s cooler like in November to use the oven.

Scott should have ended Charlie Browns complaint with CB’s trade mark response “Good grief!”

Weren’t all the Spīce Girls named after different kinds of spīces? I wonder if any of them ever volunteered to be known as Pumpkin.

I’ll bypass the pumpkin spice everything and head for the dairy case, where the Lactaid eggnog (only kind I can digest) has just appeared.

Pumpkin pie and the occasional pumpkin bread/muffins or pumpkin cookies are enough. The thought of pumpkin coffee or beer makes me gag!

And the Great Pumpkin flies over all the hipster coffee shops in the land to see which ones are the most sincere about pumpkin spice offerings…

How do Peanuts’ adults make pumpkin spice coffee?

They just add Waa-Waa.

good grief

Nowadays, that stuff is synthesized in factory chemistry labs. “Pumpkin Patch?” … gone with the wind.

i’m guessing that pumpkin spice is probably available in tokyo in some form (pumpkin spice tofu?), but out here in the boonies, i’ve never experienced it…

Good Grief!

“And thats whats Fall all about Charlie Brown”

Are you kidding me, Scott?!? I live for pumpkin spice season!!! Right now I have only one small carton of Loard’s pumpkin ice cream in my garage freezer and I’m hoarding it until the next batch comes in. I also opened my last bottle of Starbuck’s pumpkin spice creamer today. Things are getting dicey around here.

I was shopping at WalMart today & saw that Kellogg’s has a new cereal out, “It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown”. It has orange & green balls with pumpkin shaped marshmallows. The 1 surprise, it is vanilla flavored, not pumpkin spice.

Is this the one where Linus sits up all night in his kitchen, awaiting the arrival of the Great Pumpkin in hopes that GP will find his cupboard full of pumpkin spice products to be the most sincere?

Nothing against pumpkin spice flavoring, per se, but I recently bought Pumpkin Spice Cheerios on a whim. I was not impressed.

And time to kick the football too.

He was supposed to say good grief.
