It’s officially the fall. It’s September, so it’s fall. And I feel like I am finally allowed to enjoy it now with out this seasonal-confusion disorder that seems to plague me with the change of every season with every impending holiday. Last year, I saw Christmas crap at Costco in August. I saw Halloween stuff in the stores in July and now this year, I saw Pumpkin Spice lattes at Starbucks in August, too!
As someone who’s life revolves around pumpkin during fall time and all the way through the end of the Christmas season, if I can finagle it – I have felt like I had to fight the fall and pumpkiny urges until September officially rolled in. This is worse than the first weeks of diet. Denying yourself pumpkin spicey things when everyone else is eating, drinking and shooting it up to their hearts content and having to withhold yourself is torture! But no more.
I’m done, giving in, throwing in the towel, walking off the cliff that leads to no-where but pumpkin and carbs all the rest of the year long. *insert cartoonish maniacal laughter here*
I love making my own spice blends because you have the ability to tone down or jack up certain spices that you love and the ones you don’t. Like clove? Awesome, toss in a little more to give your pie that spice that deep and complex, cozy flavor. Or not such a fan of the nutmeg, tone it down a tad. Make it your own and then you don’t have to worry about gathering 5 different spice jars just to make one thing – it’s all here in one convenient little jar!

Pumpkin pie spice is my favorite. You honestly have no idea. I use the stuff all year round!! So good! Love making it at home so I can make it to my liking!
I’m a big fan of homemade spice blends, but I’ve never done my own pumpkin pie spice before – will have to try this fall!
I’m in denial that summer is over. If I get to start fall off with this I am willing to change my mind.
YAY! I’m so happy to see pumpkin things on the blogs again. 🙂 Now, if only the weather down here would get a clue.
Oooh, this blend could end up saving me so much money!!
Crazy marketing people! I can handle an early Halloween, but Christmas? The last thing I want to think about when it’s 400 degrees outside is the jolly old fellow.
Anyways, love this spice! Definitely bookmarked!
Big fan of homemade spice blends, Megan. Making your own pumpkin and apple pie spice blends is the best! I’m working with pumpkin today…with homemade butterscotch! Lovely photography, girl. Thanks for sharing!
I love making my own spice blends. They’re so much cheaper and taste so much better. This looks wonderful. Bring on the lattes!
Making your own spice blends is the only way to do it! Talk about cheaper.
I love making my own pumpkin spice blend, learned this recipe a few years ago and loving saving a few bucks every year!
I like making my own, too but girl, I am so not ready for pumpkin! haha. I try to fight it off until October and then enjoy it through December. 🙂
I’m almost out of Pumpkin Pie Spice…guess I don’t need to buy myself a new one! Love the idea of making it myself. Have you ever tried making your own curry? I haven’t yet but would love to!
I see this happening in my kitchen very soon.. Love it!
So smart to make your own blend!
So handy to have! Love DIY spice mixes!
This is awesome! I have never bought pumpkin spice before, and now I don’t need to! Genius!
And now, it is officially the fall season. Sure, pumpkin spice lattes have been floating around for a while. But I know it is fall when I see my first pumpkin pie spice blog post! I love this! 🙂
I love being able to make my own spices.
