Pumpkin Spiced
Pumpkin Spiced | Paige Lavoie

In This Issue With the old farmhouse falling apart, it seems like the only thing that'll help the girls save up for repairs is finding a new roommate. But, who in their right mind is going to move in with the "town weirdos"? What's Pumpkin Spiced? Pumpkin Spiced is a flavor that's the very essence of fall. It's embraced by the goths, geeks, and Halloween queens in October, blending into the sea of skeletons and jack-o-lanterns. No one gives it a second glance. However, once the seasons change it stands out like a sore thumb. People look at it and think, You don't belong here. The characters in this story are Pumpkin Spiced themselves. Infusing everything they do with just a touch of October flair regardless of the season. Dedicated to anyone who's ever felt just a little bit different.

JenlovesJT47 @TorieStorieS 😁 hehe well I do like apples but I can‘t eat them whole because my jaws are messed up. So the only way I can eat them is sliced up which takes the fun out of eating a candy apple I suppose! ☹️ 1mo
JenlovesJT47 @TorieStorieS and I don‘t like coffee at all (😳) but I love pumpkin chai tea. I also love anything cinnamon so I love them both, what can I say! 1mo
TorieStorieS Hahahaha, that would take the fun out of candy apples! For my last book club meeting, we made “apple nachos” which were fun— sliced apples with caramel sauce and then different toppings— nuts, candy pieces, sprinkles— they were super fun! And I‘m not a coffee person either, but my husband is super into it— I like the smell but not the taste. I always give him a hard time about his love of pumpkin spice! 🤣🤣 1mo

@Emilymdxn Thank you for hosting the #pumpkinspicereadathon! There was no actual pumpkin spice powering my reading the past few days (I am NOT a flavored latte gal) but there have been more cups of tea than are strictly reasonable 😁🫖🍵📚📖 #scarathlon #skeletoncrew

Emilymdxn Aha I too am not a flavoured latte gal! I only like my coffee black but I love the idea and cosiness of the pumpkin spice season ☕️ 13mo

Used the #PumpkinSpiceReadathon to fulfill some of my #Scarathlon bucket list items including reading outdoors. (This is a friend's deck, not, alas, mine.)

I also did a lot of gardening while listening to Doppelganger by Naomi Klein. Now that is one scary book. 😬

A little #PumpkinSpiceReadathon update.

I‘ve finished two books and only need to read 29 more pages to reach my page goal.

Currently reading Were-Geeks Save Wisconsin and listening to Kiss and Spell. Weekend plans to go to the pumpkin patch may be rained out so maybe I‘ll be able to get some dedicated reading time. We‘ll see. 🎃🎃🎃

#scarathlonsprint alert! To go along with the #pumpkinspicereadthon, I‘ll be hosting a little reading sprint for 2 hours tomorrow 6-8pm London time. I appreciate time zones are a bit difficult to make work for everyone but I hope this will work for European participants and at least a handful of our American compatriots who are about in the daytime 🥰

Tagging my #skeletoncrew below but other team captains will be posting to their teams i think!

kwmg40 Wish I could join, but I'll be at work. Good luck to those who are participating! 14mo

Cassandra Kitty is helping me cozy up my morning reading in honor of #pumpkinspicedreadathon starting today. Read cuddled up with one of the kittens was also one of my #halloweenbucketlist items, so she‘s clearly doing her job very well 🐈‍⬛🖤🎃🧡🍁❤️ #scarathlon #skeletoncrew @Emilymdxn

Welcome to the #pumpkinspicereadathon Litsy friends 🎃 this is a casual little midweek readathon where you can read as much or as little as you want, get some #scarathlon points and you‘re gently encouraged to appreciate the cosiest parts of autumn. If you‘re posting any cosy cafe or blanket reading photos, please tag me!

Emilymdxn @ShananigansReads sorry for some reason it‘s never tagging you the first time I try! 14mo
ShananigansReads @Emilymdxn no worries. Thanks for making sure I‘m included. 14mo

AnnR @Emilymdxn Thank you for the tag. 🎃🧡🎃 I decided to read The Bakeshop at Pumpkin and Spice as one of my book choices during your readathon. For anyone interested, it is also available on Kindle Unlimited and they just happened to offer a 3 month freebie trial. (Not sure if that would apply to everyone.) 14mo
Emilymdxn @AnnR now that sounds impossible to resist - I‘ve got something I‘m trying to finish tonight and I might have to elevate that to be up next since it‘s so theme appropriate 🎃☕️ 14mo
AnnR @Emilymdxn I didn't realize it is actually 3 loosely interconnected stories, written by three different authors, which caught me by surprise. So far, one story stands out from the other(s). 14mo

Ahoy #scarathlon participants! The #pumpkinspicereadathon runs October 10-13 and is a super chill, set your own goals, cosy readathon. If you want to participate, any and all books count but you‘re encouraged to post a pic of your cosy autumnal reading - slippers, blankets, fancy coffees, nice cafes, and warm jumpers are all encouraged!

Emilymdxn @ShananigansReads sorry just tagging you again as I think the tag didn‘t work above! 14mo
AnnR Reminders are welcome for all of us. 🎃🙂 14mo

Emilymdxn @AnnR totally! I‘ve just tagged my team as it was the only easily copy and pasteable list I had to hand but if anyone else would like to be tagged in future posts I can add them to the list for this readathon 🥰 14mo
AnnR @Emilymdxm Thank you. You can add me to your tag list. I have a calendar of scarathlon readathons but it is still easy to lose track of things. 🧡 14mo

Happy Friday night with some Autumn coffee, a pumpkin spice moon pie and British Baking Show Halloween week episode.
#FallBucketList - Autumn drink ✔️
#Scarathlon2022 #TeamMonsterMash

ShelleyBooksie What is a moon pie? Sounds like a nice evening ♡ 2y
Nessavamusic @ShelleyBooksie it is a soft cookie sandwich with marshmallow filling and a pumpkin white chocolate coating. 2y
Scochrane26 I forget some people don‘t know what moon pies are. @shelleybooksie Moon pies are more in the southern US, they‘re good if you like marshmallow. Also, Paul Hollywood ruined s‘mores in this ep. Poor guy—must never have been to camp. Or been around a campfire. (edited) 2y

RosePressedPages Paul has ruined every non-British kind of dessert and I was personally offended by the S‘mores he made. But I loved the Halloween theme 2y
sarahbellum Oh geez, I‘m watching the GBBS episode right now: s‘mores with digestive biscuits?! Whaaa??!! Paul clearly needs to watch Sandlot: “First you take the GRAHAM!” 🤦🏻‍♀️ @Scochrane26 @MadelineMcCrae (edited) 2y
Nessavamusic @MadelineMcCrae @sarahbellum @Scochrane26 Yes! I mean those are very much not S‘Mores. This season is completely off the rails. The Mexico episode was absolutely ridiculous, and not in a good way. (edited) 2y

Sorry for the spam! It‘s been a busy busy few days. I has my first PSL of the year yesterday! Usually I get a customized pumpkin shaken espresso because I am a caffeine fiend, but it‘s better than I remember it being in past years! So far, checked off 6/11 things on my October Bucket List. :)

Just as I don‘t want to see football on my TV in early August, I don‘t want to see pumpkin spice anything at Camp This and That summer camp. Maybe at fall mini camp, but probably not this popcorn because it‘s nasty. #LitsySummerCamp #Day6 #cooking

AlaMich And Halloween candy is already for sale! 😠 3y
ImperfectCJ A lot of the pumpkin spice stuff falls into the "just because we can doesn't mean we should" category for me. 3y
Susanita @AlaMich I‘m not ready! Let summer be summer! 3y

So slow day for self care. I did get my pumpkin spice latte this morning and ... during a break at work my coworker and I took a walk (about 20 mins) today. We have been trying to take walks every day (we have been really lucky to be able to do that most days we work) ... I need to clean out my phone and inbox -- will try to do that tomorrow

Allylu I was down to .7 GB of storage on my phone and my husband found out I needed to run an update - now I have 16GB!! It pays to be married to an IT guy! 4y
