Happy National Pumpkin Day and it’s-almost-Halloween-Friday! Lets celebrate National Pumpkin Day with five awesome, pumpkin-y items. We are celebrating all things pumpkin – taste, color and smell.
We are officially in holiday season, yay! I just wish winter didn’t have to come with it. We had our first real snow and almost single digit temp day last Sunday. It was almost sixty degrees Saturday. You can’t call Colorado weather boring, but I was sure calling it some other things on Sunday. Thank goodness we are back to almost sixty, at least for a few days.

Halloween White Chocolate Pumpkin Pie M&M’s
I know I’m in the minority here, but I love regular M&M’s more than the peanut variety. And I do love pumpkin pie. Although these might taste great with peanuts! You might want to eat these while you’re handing out boxes of raisins at Halloween:) A disadvantage of dirt road living, no trick or treaters:(
From Target – Nothing says Halloween quite like M&M’s White Chocolate Pumpkin Pie packages! Perfect for decorating, snacking, baking or putting out at Halloween parties. Everyone is sure to be delighted by this iconic Halloween M&M’S flavor.

Breckenridge Brewery Nitro Fall Seasonal Pumpkin Spice Latte Pumpkin Coffee Stout
So, I kind of saved the best for last. For those days when a PSL just isn’t enough, let me introduce you to the Nitro Pumpkin Spice Latte from Breckenridge Brewery. Beer is a kind of a big deal here in Colorado, although it does seem to get shown up by our home grown. Just the name of this ale alone made me know I had to try it. Then, the description – smooth cascading coffee milk stout brewed with pumpkin and spices. I am so walking right past Starbucks right now.

Happy all things pumpkin shopping and have a great weekend!
