Cinnamon and Spice

Photobucket

Just the smell of cinnamon brings memories of winter and snuggling and all things delicious. I never thought there would be a huge difference between different types of cinnamon. But last year when my mom and I bought this "extra fancy Vietnamese cinnamon" from Penzeys Spices in Phoenix, we never looked back to ordinary cinnamon.


We've used it in apple pie (here ), in hot chocolate, in snicker doodles, and so much more.

There are a ton of beautiful gift boxes and recipe ideas on there website so if you are looking for a gift for a friend who loves cinnamon I highly recommend making the trip to Penzeys and checking out their stuff!

You can make the spiders fun with different colored sprinkles and crazy colored legs

Or darker and more spooky by using cookie crumbs and adding fangs.
