Sticker Shock!

















I went to a local grocery store for the ingredients to make the Spiced Americano, and I was surprised to find out how expensive the spices were! This little fella (if I can recall it correctly) is less than an ounce and it sells for about $4.00. Along with the other ingredients, the ground allspice (also in the smallest size), and the cinnamon, that would cost me over $10.00 for all three! I thought about it for a moment, and I ended up putting them back on the spice racks. I am sure Giada's spiced americano tastes good.

Just scroll down, and you will see the picture.
