DIY Pumpkin Spice Mix

Instead of spending money on a premade spice blend, make your own pumpkin spice mix this holiday season.  I recommend purchasing the individual spices in bulk.  When spices are sold in this way, it is usually an indication of freshness.  The fresher the spices, the stronger flavor they will have.  Your homemade mix will be tastier than the store bought brand and you can use it all season long for a variety of confections.
