Hershey's Pumpkin Spice Kisses

I love it when candy makers put out special flavors to complement the season.  Hershey is especially good at doing this when it comes to their Hershey Kisses.  From peppermint to candy corn flavors, none of them disapoint --- not to me, anyway!

I was gifted some Pumpkin Spice Kisses for the blog (thanks, Sarah!).  I couldn't wait to try them!
The packaging is so pretty with its fall colors of orange and brown.  These are very hard to find, and I have looked around at every store (out of curiosity) and haven't seen them anywhere. 
When you open your kiss, you discover that even the little flag is different - it has PUMPKIN SPICE printed in white on a warm brown.  The kiss itself is a pumpkin orange with a cream-colored center. 
Let me tell you - these kisses are yummy!  They taste just like fall spices and are very sweet and creamy.  There is no hint of chocolate, so, if you get a hold of these, don't expect them to taste anything like your usual kisses.  I only wish that Hershey would make them more readily available!  I didn't even know such a thing existed until a few weeks ago.  Thanks again to Sarah! :)

Here is a pretty promotional picture of what the inside is like:

Pick up a bag if you can find them.

Halloween Around the Neighborhood

Ever since the rain passed, I have been trying to get outside with my daughter as much as possible.  Soon winter will be setting in and we won't want to go on our walks anymore.  Then it will be impossible with ice, snow, etc.  Ugh, I don't even want to think about it.

A few weeks ago, I noticed that the neighborhood we walk in was getting more and more decorated for the season.  I decided, in a break from my usual food posts, that I would like to share with you my favorite autumn scenes from our daily walks. 

One day, I finally remembered my camera.  I was nervous the entire time that someone, especially a grumpy old person, might come out of their house and say, "why are you taking pictures of my house?!"  Thankfully, that didn't happen!

Anyway, I hope you enjoy these scenes as much as we do!

Baby all ready for her walk.
A cute start to our walk.  Frankenstein and candy corn!
It's spooky the way it is catching the wind ...
This guy especially freaks me out, so here is a close-up for a better look!
The thing on the door especially scares me.
Sooo creepy!
These guys are my favorite! :)
And we saw some deer at the end of our walk in the clearing next to our home.  They always just stare at me suspiciously.
Starting last week, this mannequin appeared at the end of a driveway on the way home from work.  They vary her everyday.  At first I thought she was REAL!
(Yes, there were no cars behind me).
Here she is close up:
Weird, huh? I thought so!  She sort of looks like Uma Thurman's character in Pulp Fiction. 

Happy Haunts!  Halloween is just days away!  I hope you're ready.
