A few days ago, pumpkin spice lattes came back to multiple coffee shops and I was/am living for it. Pumpkin season is my favorite season. Everything that has a pumpkin alternative, I am buying it. Pumpkin just makes me happy.
Pumpkin spice lattes are great iced or hot. Pumpkin coffee from Wawa is to die for. Most foods that come in pumpkin spice flavor is better than the original flavor, such as Life Cereal. If you haven't tried Pumpkin Spice Life Cereal, then you're missing out. It's the best.
I don't know what it is about pumpkin spice, but whatever it is, it brings me so much happiness. I love it so much, I wish it was available all year.
But like with anything that brings people joy, there is always the negative Nancy that has to let people know that they are not happy about it coming back so soon.
I saw at least four people on my social media pages share their negative feelings about pumpkin spice season being back, and I saw one major restaurant chain make a post about it being "too soon" for pumpkin spice to be back.
I have a question for those people.
Why do you feel the need to hate on something that brings a lot of people so much happiness?
Sure, I don't like everything, either, but I don't go around making Facebook statuses or Tweet about how much I hate it. I keep my opinion to myself.
Pumpkin spice is not hurting you. Heck, most things that people like aren't hurting you, so why don't we try to just let people enjoy the things they like? If it is not bringing any danger to you, them, or the population, just let them be.
You can still think it is too early for pumpkin stuff to be available, but don't make those who are excited about it feel stupid for being excited.
We only get this drink for a few months out of the year, so let us get them as soon as we can and be excited about it!
