My New Philosophy. . .

My New Philosophy body wash smells like pumpkin spice muffins. . . which is good, because I really like the smell of pumpkin spice muffins, but also bad, because now I really want a pumpkin spice muffin and I don’t have one. And can I write pumpkin spice muffin a few more times? Yes. Shout it from the rooftops. Pumpkin Spice Muffin! Pumpkin Spice Muffin!

Alas, while the body wash triples as a bubble bath and shampoo, it cannot be ingested. It also doesn’t leave a heavy scent of pumpkin on your skin, which is good, because if I had to smell this all day long, I’d probably wind up crouched in a corner eating pumpkin pie filling straight from the can and mumbling something about getting back from the ball before the strike of midnight. (Get it? Cinderella? Pumpkin coach? Too much of a stretch?)

For those culinarily inclined, a recipe for actual pumpkin spice muffins is printed right on the bottle. I do not recommend baking in the shower. It can only end badly.

One more time. Pumpkin spice muffin.
