Pumpkin Pie Spice Mix

The Kitchen Pixies aren't huge fans of those bottles of "spice mixes" because they clutter up the cupboard and rarely add to variety in the kitchen. The ingredients are usually found in other bottles and pots. At the same time, they can be convenient, so we're posting some of our recipes for common spice mixes so you can mix up your own when needed. Feel free to change the amounts as you need or desire.
