On a recent trip to a child-friendly farm, I was dismayed to learn that mass-produced pumpkin pies don’t use the wonderful, orange pumpkins that we so look forward to every autumn. Instead, the pumpkin of choice for canned pumpkin is bottle-neck pumpkin, and as you can see in the picture above, is more of a squash than a pumpkin.
How disappointing is that? All I need now is for someone to tell me that Santa Claus doesn’t exist.
No, he totally exists, but he flies a spaceship instead of a sleigh.
I am currently very annoyed at the latest cliché Christmas movie to come off the formulaic crap assembly line. I just know I’m going to have to watch this garbage if I ever have kids. *sigh*
