Cooking and Spices

I really enjoy cooking and with cooking comes the need for spices. Normally one doesn’t get all excited about a spice delivery, but I do. One spice company I use is Penzey’s. They are based in Wisconsin but have some retail outlets in Illinois. The interesting part about this company is the owner. He is very opinionated and tells it how he feels in their sale emails.  They have a wide variety of spices and in various sizes, even sample packs. They are always well most of the time giving you freebies or very reduced prices on different products.  So you really need to check them at https://www.penzeys.com I am confident you will enjoy their spices as much as I do.

P.S. You MUST sign up for their email list so you can get the great emails that Bill sends out about sales and his views!
