The time is upon us: The First Thursday in October. You know you want in. Instructions here. Prize is ubercute.
I demand your orange foods, however you choose to interpret that command. I have a fever, and the only cure is foodstuffs related to the word "orange."
Get crack-a-lackin'! Want the badge? Code after the jump.

Alternate Title: I'll dutch your baby anytime, hot stuff.*
*Because a dutch baby is a kind of big, fluffy baked pancake often filled with apples. Not because I'm trying to come on to you. Although if I knew you, I'm sure I TOTALLY would.

GOOP: Hair gel, anal lube, slimy children's candy or heinous new Gwyneth Paltrow website?
