In that event, is it too presumptuous of me to respectfully request a large cup of cowboy coffee with a slice of cinamon pumpkin pie on the side?

I like pumpkin with spices, but as pumpkin with spices, not in everything.   I like anchovy pizza also but sure as heck don't want it in my coffee.

I had errands to run this morning. I had Lunch at my favorite place to eat, CFS, Fries, Pinto Beans, and a Salad. It sure was tasty.  I went home and took a little nap. I am thinking about taking another one. No clue for Supper.

Got back from the big city (Omaha  ;D)  Decided I like this GI doc, first time for everything, gal about 30, guessing from India or Pakistan, listened to what I said, agreed that was what was wrong, no sense is doing the drink and X-Ray since we know it's there.  Said there were several ways to go about it, medicine, diet see if loosing a few pounds would maybe help, or just fix it, yep, bingo.

She said most are to worried about it and mess with it and are misrible for years.  Told her I had enough lapros it didn't bother me.  Anyway got to go Wed and they are going to put me out and make sure the espogus ain't damaged and then she's sending me to UNO Med Center, she said they have a good surgeon over there for this stuff.  Asked her if it was Olinikuf and she said it was.  Yep I know him, he helped develpe the wrap to keep adhesions from sticking after surgery and I was one of his first patients on that.

After my early morning pain the azz exploration, I had a fancy coffee and pumpkin (aka pum'kin) bread.  Nice to have some solid food and caffeine again!

I slept in this morning. The Cawffee woke me enough to get up and get dressed. I had some stuff to do in the front yard, so I got it done before it got hot. I am going to drink another cup of Cawffee and take a nap.

Del,

I would guess the pumpkin itself is okay?
What is it about or within the spices that you don't like?
I like my coffee straight up and black. The Flavored coffee's are ok, only occasionally, but I don't care much for it on a full time bases.
My best,

For me, the best place to use Pumpkin Pie Spice, is in a pumpkin pie. Can't comment on Pumpkin Pie Spiced coffee products, since I don't drink either spiced or regular coffee.

Nothing wrong with pumpkin or other winter squash spiced up with what ever you choose, my mix for two Winter squash (pumpkin is a winter squash) sweet tater or carrot pie or the same roasted.
2 teaspoons of cinnamon
1 teaspoon of allspice
1 teaspoon of nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon of ground cloves

But it does not belong in everything else just cause it's October, I like soy sauce on some things but I sure ain't going to put it in my coffee.

At least pumpkin soup is an old dish dating to before Columbus and also before pumpkin pie.  It ain't something companies are try to cash in on Yuppies and their buying stupid things because it's cool.
