Decorative Gourd Season



I don't remember who sent me this McSweeney's essay, but when my little sister Jennifer reminded me of it today, I laughed so hard that I cried.

Be forewarned: there's an awful lot of cursing in it, particularly the "f" word.

  5. Oh, Elizabeth! Thank you for this! I walked past the pumpkinds and gourds and autumn napkins, etc. recently in the store and felt like a sub-par mom/wife for not having any fall decorations up. Ha!
