(in reference to the OP) pumpkin spice lattes at starbucks aren't vegan =( the syrup base itself contains sweetened condensed milk (how lame! since when did pumpkins and spice have anything to do with this!)

(1) halloween
(2) rain! and the cleanliness of the air afterwards
(3) vegan pumpkin-chocolate chip cookies at Ralphs
(4) yeast goes on sale
(5) I get to make pumpkin "cheese"cake
(6) it no longer becomes weird to bake, because it's not 100º anymore =D
(7) apples
(8) butternut squash
(10) anything that contains cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and/or cardamom
(11) anticipation of Christmas! (I'm early, I know.)
