Frank and Ernest by Thaves for October 10, 2021

It’s a comic; it doesn’t have to scan.

For some, there’s never enough. For others, even a little is too much.

I gotta admit… I tried a hyped Pumpkin Spice Latte and I’m hooked. LOL at myself :)

If it is so popular, why are remnant stores packed to the ceiling with Pumpkin Spice products for months after Autumn is just a memory?

I guess we just have to gourd ourselves this time of year.

For squirrels, out of sight really is out of mind. Watched one in the back yard digging, plantings, and packing dirt over one it will never find again. People say they find by scent. After months of watering, seeding, fertilizing. leaf blowing, mowing, etc, how much scent would be left to find?

Go Braves!

VERY, VERY cute and clever. . .

The world series is really over rated! Every year it’s usually an American team that wins. Once it was a Canadian team. Does that justify calling it a world series?

Unfortunately, too true!

Pumpkin spice is okay in some things but not Cheerios. They get carried away with pumpkin spice!

In NE waiting for the colors to change. We were just on the Maine coast and it’s beginning to change there. I guess NH and VT are in full bloom now. MA is starting to change too.

Don’t forget your pumpkin spice cow manure.

Pumpkin spice Depends.

Pumpkin spice rodent bait for the mouse traps.

Pumpkin spice motor oil.

Pumpkin spice Dr. Scholl’s corn pads.

Pumpkin spice pomade.

Pumpkin spice bacon.

Pumpkin spice toilet paper.

Pumpkin spice suppository laxatives.

A pumpkin spice bread is good, otherwise not for me, especially in coffees.

Sadly…..

Keto Pumpkin Pie Cupcakes

1 15 oz can pumpkin puree 1/2 cup sweetener1/4 cup brown sweetener2 large eggs1 teaspoon vanilla extract3/4 cup Keto evaporated milk*2/3 cup almond flour2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice1/4 teaspoon salt1/4 teaspoon baking powder1/4 teaspoon baking soda

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 12 cup muffin tin with silicone liners, foil liners sprayed with cooking spray or just spray the cups with cooking spray. Either of these three methods will make it easy to take the cupcake out after it’s cooked. Paper liners make it difficult to remove the cupcakes.

Mix the pumpkin, sweeteners, eggs, vanilla extract and evap. milk. Add the flour, pumpkin spice, salt, baking powder and baking soda to the mixture. Fill each muffin cup with 1/3 cup of the mixture. Bake for twenty minutes and let cool for twenty minutes. Remove cupcakes from pan and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes. Top with whipped cream and sprinkle more pumpkin pie spice on top and serve. Makes 12 cupcakes.

Keto Evaporated Milk20 oz Heavy Whipping Cream Simmer 30-45 minutes in open saucepan, stirring constantly to avoid scorching.Makes about 10 oz.

Ick! I would much rather have apple cinnamon than pumpkin spice.

Have you ever eaten squirrel? Meat definitely has a nutty flavor.If there weren’t so many tiny bones to carve out, yummy squirrels would be extinct already. But it’s more work than meat in final analysis. sigh.

For the love of gourd, stop adding pumpkin spice to your coffee drinks.

Don’t forget about Halloween

Kids are going door to door

Reformation day reminds us

Of someone nailing theses to a door.

Football season is in full swing

Homecomings are all around

We all look forward to Thanksgiving

As we ignore political sound

Out law pumpkin spice!

Still trying to figure out that comma in the last pane.=l.

I love pumpkin pie (with real whipped cream), but I’ve never had, or even seen, any other kind of pumpkin spice product.

The squirrels in my back yard seem to be eating a lot more pecans than their storing.

If the “pumpkin spice” turns your brown eyes blue, it’s really an Arrakis product.
