Cinnamon is the one spice I replenish the most in my spice cabinet! And while it definitely has a fall cozy vibe, I use it year round. But I only really bake with it or add it to sweet recipes. I never thought to add it to savoury recipes. I'll have to check out all the links in your post, especially that pork chop recipe!
