When signing office birthday cards, I always like to sign it early, and include a note from the birthday person to his or her self. For example:

Dear Maggie: Happy Birthday to the most awesome person I've ever known. You get better every single day, and the world LOVES you. Your friend, Maggie.

Other people, if they read the messages when they sign are like WTF? Also, if the person to whom the card is addressed reads it (test time) they wonder when they wrote THAT.

Not the pumpkins!

About two weeks ago, I bought the last can of cooked pumpkin on the shelf at the local grocery store to use in some cupcakes Mrs. glatt was making for a pot luck. On the phone today, Mrs. glatt mentioned that she had been to 3 different grocery stores in town looking for canned pumpkin to use in another recipe. All the shelves were bare. We joked about that for a bit. Who's buying all the pumpkin? Is there a big pumpkin pie contest going on in town? Were they recalled, or something?

So I got on Google, and to my surprise found out that there is a nation wide pumpkin shortage!

Thanksgiving is going to be canceled this year. No pumpkin pie.
