Ok, fair warning. The information you are about to receive may or may not be considered dangerous to some. It may cause explosions of epic proportions witching people of all ages. It may make some upset because it seems early ( but we deal with this every year) it will make others happy so they can start making plans for the who ha day and or holiday season.

Oops, almost forgot that we all fall back on nov 2nd at 2am. Well, most of us will probably fall back into bed on nov 1st then wake up pre fallen on nov 2nd but do what you can with it and be careful what you fall back into. Probably best to make it something very soft.

nov 4th is Election Day and we can all celebrate then end of the political ads accordingly

as always, the Holliday and or who ha day season is about giving so if you can, or if you need some help here's a few places you might want to think about (more later on)

the annual empty bowls event is at the bell event center nov 2nd

OK, we need a flavor of the month. Sorry I'm a little late with this, but I had some thinking to do. Think think think... . Now November is one of those months where there is a flavor that just kinda sticks out. One so tasty the smell of it alone can make your taste buds go crazy. Yeah, I'm talking about cinnamon! Sweet and spicy cinnamon. A flavor that truly takes a back seat to no other flavor. One of the greatest smells and tastes in the world (in my opinion) But, of course, having cinnamon alone be the flavor would be just too easy. And that is just not how we roll. We need to look outside the box (after we figure out why we are in a box to begin with because if you never put yourself in the box you can always think outside the box) Sooooooooooooooooooooooo... what's it gonna be? HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!?!?!???!?! You know, there is a parfait day in november and everyone likes a parfait yet not enough places offer a parfait. I'm sure that if offered a parfait many would say yes please to the offer of a parfait. Or not. Sundae day is in November too but we just did toppings in october. Of course, November brings thanksgiving which means pie! And what's better on pie than a good old scoop of your favorite flavor of ice cream. Yeah, make mine ala mode please. Warm apple pie with a scoop of cinnamon OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BABY! Now that's the stuff. Of course, that takes us back to cinnamon again. Now, I know there are some who don't dig cinnamon so I'm gonna try to appease them too by saying you can mode in any flavor you like (or go unmoded if you so desire) It's your thing do what you wanna do. Which still leaves us at cinnamon or your favorite alternative flavor. And the holiday flavors bring many different tastes too the table. It offers us a chance to broaden our horizons. To try something new. To take our tongue on a new adventure down the flavor highway. To have me explain why this is getting so long and why I still have not gotten to the point (my bad) Never had chips before? Have some chips? Always been a vanilla kind of person? Let a little chocolate in your life! Try a waffle cone instead! Try some frozen yogurt instead of ice cream! Shake the shake habit for a malt or float! Be different! Be Unique! Take a chance, you just might like it! Yes folks, the flavor of the month is diversity! Try something new. Mix in something different. Top it a new way. Open a new flavor door for yourself. Be diverse! As always (and especially this month) all chips, chunks, dips, dunks, swirls, twirls.... (You know the rest) are in as well. Try something different this November and expand your flavor to savour horizons!
