Daily Prompt – Trick Or Trick

It’s Halloween, and you just ran out of candy. If the neighborhood kids (or anyone else, really) were to truly scare you, what trick would they have to subject you to?

Pumpkin spiced flavoured everything: can’t get enough OR enough already!

Unless you’re drinking your Starbucks religiously, the whole ‘pumpkin spice’ concept really doesn’t exist here in Australia, as it’s predominantly a purely American thing for ‘fall’ and leading up towards Halloween.

I’m not exactly a big fan of pumpkin in the first place, let alone anything pumpkin-spiced.

Sorry, but you guys can have it all to yourselves.
