POTD - Spicy


POTD - Spicy
©2011 Kristin Corlett

One of my Michigan trips I found myself at an estate sale with my Mom.  I recall seeing quite a few big or heavy things that I would have loved to haul home with me - a typing table, a large framed poster from the 70s, books.   One of them was a gallon zipper bag with seven spice tins and a small box of birthday candles.  All for the bargain price of 50¢.  I remember telling my Mom that I was going to need these for a photo shoot some day.  I was right.  I was fresh out of ideas, when I remembered the spices.  I tore out a page from a 60s cookbook to make the backdrop for the tins and spent some time arranging and rearranging the tins until I finally got a shot I liked.  

Enjoy!

There is a spice called "Mace"?
That sounds so delightful.
