In re the cost of spices:
My mother taught me something which she learned from her mother and older
sisters -- her mother was an immigrant, ca 1870s, from Poland-Austro/Hungary-
Russia-Lutti -- in regard to spices.
She used to measure the spices over a piece of paper. Then she'd pour the
remaining spice --surely no more than 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon! -- back into the
jar, because spice was expensive and you didn't want to waste it.
I think this says a lot about the extravagant use of spices.
