Start with two clean,small, pretty jars.
To each jar add:
- 8 tsp ground cinnamon
- 2 tsp ground nutmeg
- 2 tsp ground ginger
- and 1 tsp ground cloves
Add simple handwritten labels and a peice of ribbon or twine.
Keep one and surprise a friend or neighbour with the other. Enjoy liberally in muffins, pie, pancakes (Seriously yummy...try it!) and coffee.

ReplyDeleteNow I'm wondering why I haven't done anything like this before! I just might have to double it, because I feel like I will be using pretty much all of it, especially with healthy doses of it in my pumpkin pie delivery this fall. Can't wait to catch up on everything here, especially the homemade hot chocolate!
