It’s getting really Autumn-like out here in Houston. It’s so exciting. Fall is in the air, Halloween’s almost here which means Thanksgiving and Christmas and candy-filled stockings and pumpkin pie and apple cider; the season of perpetual food! I can’t wait! Today was actually really cold!! It was like 65 degrees this morning.

OK, I don’t write here too often, but as avid fan of spiritual warfare I felt that I needed to help get the word out about the real war this campaign season.

Who knew?

Disclaimer: It’s been a while since I wrote about a straight-up Succubus vexing my life. (It’s been a while since I wrote about anything!!!) So instead of another post about how much I hate Sara Palin, here’s something else that has literally been ruining my life…..

Candy Corn, and the purchasing of any and eating it, has been a continuous battle between Rob and I. Not that we both don’t love it  – it’s that most Candy Corn is made with gelatin and Rob is a vegetarian. (Yes, Brachs here my roar!) Why this is so, I can’t say, but between us both we have found one brand that isn’t and that is Eckerd’s. Being that Walgreen’s dominates the chain pharmacies in Texas – we’ve got a major e’ffin Candy Corn problem out here. (this is my life now, btw)

Last week, I happened upon a bag of Mallo Creme Pumpkins which, if you don’t know, are just like Candy Corn, but even more delicious and pumpkin shaped. They are amazing. I check the ingredients, as I find myself doing for all things that may possible contain gelatin from vitamins to yogurts, to find that they are pig-hoof free! Eureka! I can finally have my pumpkin shaped sugar and eat it too. Rob will be over joyed.

Well it’s been about a week since I purchased this (XL) bag of sugar pumpkins and.. yeah.. Rob thinks they are ‘ok’. A little sweet for his taste. Me? I freakin’ love ‘em. And with that love comes mass consumption. I have officially gained 5 pounds in one week from sitting… and eating… pumpkin shaped sugar corn.

So, there you go. It sucks… deliciously.
