BEDFORD, NY — We might have thought we have seen it all when it comes to pumpkin spice or Martha Stewart, but now, we may have literally seen it all.

To promote the Pumpkin Spice coffee flavor from Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, the Hudson Valley's very own celebrity lifestyle guru/restaurateur posted a "cheeky" Instagram video wearing just an apron in the kitchen of her Bedford home.

"I'm just enjoying the natural flavor of Pumpkin Spice from Green Mountain Coffee Roasters. And nothing else, literally," said the 81-year-old Stewart, while holding a mug of the coffee. "Just look at this, a thing of beauty. No, no, no, not me. My Green Mountain Coffee Roasters Pumpkin Spice coffee. It's made with natural flavors. That means they've stripped away the artificial and left nothing but goodness. What can I say? We have a lot in common."

Stewart has been known in the past to not fully appreciate the pumpkin spice craze. However, it seems she has recently changed her mind and has gone all in.

"Well, one thing was that Green Mountain Coffee Roasters started to make it in a very natural way," she told Thrillist. "So it really tastes like pumpkin and it really tastes like spice. I can taste the various good flavors. This actually is very tasty."

The lifestyle icon had no qualms about going the extra mile to make certain everyone knows that her favorite pumpkin spice product isn't hiding behind artificial flavors.

"I started modeling when I was a young girl and if the job called for any bit of nudity in any way, I would go with it, it's okay," Stewart told PEOPLE magazine. "I'm not embarrassed about it."

She had some reservations though. "I thought, 'Oh gosh, am I going to look good enough?,'" Stewart admitted. "I try to stay in good shape, and I think I looked very passable in those lovely photos."

She added that she practices pilates, exercises, swims and goes horseback riding two times a week. The Hudson Valley celebrity said she was pleased with the end result.

"I think I look fine and I'm in good shape," Stewart told Yahoo!Life. "I'm healthy, I'm vibrant, I'm energetic and I'm still the curious person I've always been. [Posing in only an apron] didn't faze me one iota. I walk around in a bathing suit, so if I can walk around in a bathing suit or a strapless dress and feel good, I can walk around in an apron."

In addition to Pumpkin Spice, Green Mountain will also be offering Maple Pecan and Dark Chocolate Hazelnut-flavored coffee. All three flavors will be available as K-Cup pods. Though for some reason, other seasonal flavors haven't received quite the same buzz as the au naturel, um, all natural, pumpkin spice blend.
