Pumpkin flavors came early to stores this year. Now that it’s
mid-October, pumpkin is in full force showing up in cream cheese, lattes,
breads, donuts, cupcakes, cookies, smoothies, and even in milk. The funny thing
is that pumpkin doesn’t have much flavor. It’s more cinnamon, sugar, and other
yummy spices. Nothing wrong with that, I guess. For those of us who want more
from a pumpkin, there’s always this activity:
The students came out to see the demonstration in
order to get a study break. I love the ooohs and aaahs as if that was
fascinating entertainment. Why are we so focused on pumpkins in the fall? I
think it’s because we only have a short time to appreciate them and so we make
every attempt to enjoy them. It’s like us. We only have a short time on earth,
and despite the ups and downs we face, we make the best of it. There’s a
saying, “Today is the first day of the rest of your life.” How are you maximizing
the time that remains?
