Pumpkin Iced Coffee Just Won't Do

I am taking the train home after a totally-bonkers day, and I spotted this ad:


Just this weekend, as I was relishing my favorite hoodie sweatshirt and the cool, fall-like weather, I decided that the time had arrived to enjoy my first pumpkin-flavored coffee of the season.

Of course, in true Mary fashion, it has to be in the proper circumstances.  I don't drink coffee often, people. This has to be an OCCASION. I should be wearing cute fall clothes, like a hoodie and/or boots.  I should enjoy the coffee on a clear, crisp morning.  And, most importantly, the coffee should be accompanied by an equally special breakfast treat, like a cinnamon scone or pumpkin donut.

This weekend, I completely misjudged my schedule, and neither morning allowed me to enjoy this occasion in leisure.  So I figured I'd delay it, and perhaps squeeze in some early-morning pumpkin deliciousness before work some day this week.

And now, the weather forecast is calling for 90-degree temperatures this week. That is not pumpkin coffee weather! My whole plan has gone to pieces!

Hurry up, fall! 

1. Dessert
2. Monday is over!
3. Weekends that I don't have to work
