Do I HAVE to include the "grains of paradise" in Sally's apple cake?

[marilynfl]

I mean, will it be missing part of its soul if I leave them out?

If you can't find it, I'll drop some in the mail to you. It only calls for 2 tsp.

I got some at an African market

I just ordered some from Bulk Foods which I have bought from

a few times. I bought the 2 oz. bag which was the best buy I found for $5.99. I just have been so busy I haven't had time to make it yet. I'll mail you some if you'd like.

I paid $15 for 5 oz. at my local cooking supply, so I guess that's the going rate

Got your PM. Thanks wigs!
