PUMPKIN SPICE THINGS WE REALLY DON’T NEED THIS FALL _ Thanks to Starbucks and other coffee shops, we start smelling pumpkin spice from late August well into November. The scent/flavor is so popular, companies seem to think we need it in everything. Here’s a list of some of some real — and really ridiculous — pumpkin spice products:
• Bath salts
• Cheese
• Dog treats
• Fettuccine
• Tortilla chips
SINGING IN THE CAR _ Have you ever caught yourself belting out a Supremes or Beatles song while driving down the highway? If you’re a redhead, the answer is most likely yes, according to a survey of drivers. The study found 53 percent of redheads say they always sing in the car. Also…
• Women are more likely to jam out than men.
• Capricorns are the least likely to sing while on the road
• SUV drivers sing the most.
RELATIONSHIP GREEN FLAGS _ What relationship green flags you should notice early that shows the relationship should become serious? What the internet said…
• The ability to apologize. If your partner never sees their faults, it’ll never work.
• You go on a road trip together and still like each other at the end of it.
• How they react when something serious happens. Like, how do they react if you lose your job? Are they supportive? Are they belittling? What if your dog dies? Are they there for you? Are they dismissive after a day?
• Put IKEA furniture together. If you can do it without fighting, then that is a good sign.
• He or she shows kindness and respect towards people he or she could easily get away with pushing around.
• Asking “how are you” and actually really wanting to know.
