It's Pumpkin Spice Time, or not!

RHYS BOWEN: It is officially fall. The leaves are turning, there is a nip in the air, Halloween candy has appeared in all the stores AND pumpkin spice has returned to the universe with the punctuality of the swallows coming back to Capistrano.

I have a confession to make that may anger many of you: I do not like pumpkin spice! I can tolerate pumpkin pies, although they are not my favorite. I like pumpkin soup, but not with that cinnamon kind of flavor. But pumpkin spice lattes? Yuck!

It's that season when we are overwhelmed with everything pumpkin spice. The stores are full of pumpkins. Starbucks had a countdown to the day when pumpkin spice latte would become available.
And it seems that pumpkin spice flavor/scent is available in almost everything, from candles (which are actually quite nice) to condoms.

But when I saw this post by my friend Eileen Dreyer on Facebook I felt I had to share. Is it for real? Eileen is an ER nurse so she should know a thing or two.

Should I add a clause to my will stating that in no circumstances am I to be embalmed with pumpkin spice flavored fluid? I will come back to haunt anyone who tries to do this!

So is pumpkin spice a thing that you either love or hate? Who loves it? And who thinks the embalming fluid is going too far?
