Pumpkin Pie Spice

Do you have pumpkin pie spice in your cupboard?  I don't and I have never had it.  Of course, there are a number of recipes that call for it so you have to figure out what to do.  I think that I used to just call my mom to see what to do but now I needed to have pumpkin pie spice for a recipe so I looked on pinterest.  I found this recipe.

I usually just make it up for the recipe that I need (my mom's standard suggestion) and I did take the cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves out of the cupboard but I am always in search of the quantity to mix together to make pumpkin pie spice. Many recipes also call for allspice which is another spice that I don't have and have never used.

I want to make sure that my end product is tasty even though I am too cheap to go out and buy another jar of seasoning when I have enough spices to mix together.  I needed 2 tsp for the recipe so I mixed 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp nutmeg, 1/4 tsp ginger, and 1/8 tsp cloves.  With my math skills, I added the fractions to get to 2 tsp ish..... see why math is important so that you can make it up anyway :)  I added the spices to the dry ingredients.  POOF, pumpkin spice.
