Pumpkin Pie Spice

I love love pumpkin pie.  And of course they all taste different, and I like mine the best.  I think it is because of the spices.  Some are cinnamon-y, some use allspice, some are anti-cloves.  So this is the spice combination that I enjoy.  I use it in pumpkin bread, pumpkin waffles, pumpkin smoothies, etc. too.

4 parts cinnamon
1 part nutmeg
1 part ginger
1/2 part cloves

Mix, store in airtight container, use liberally (or as indicated in recipe) for yummy pumpkin treats!

The first time I made it with teaspoons and it was gone too quick.  The next time I made it with tablespoons and that may have been too much!
