Oh, yes, that goes on... our barony has a "feast box" with some odds and
ends of dry goods that feast cooks are supposed to use, including some
ground spices. I buy whole spices and use an electric grinder, so I
never use that brick-dust-labelled-cinnamon. I don't know why we bother
with the whole wretched mess.
