David left town and left me with a half gallon of milk in the fridge. I never
drink milk. Someone suggested rice pudding (I forgot who! Sorry!) and since
today is our father's day celebration I figured I'd bring rice pudding. I
looked up a bunch of recipes and frankensteined them into my own version.

1/2 gallon 2% milk (i suppose any kind could work, i just happened to have 2%)
3/4 cup rice
2/3 cup sugar
cinnamon stick

spice mix
1 tsp ground cardamom
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground allspice
1/4 cup chopped crystallized ginger

1 tsp vanilla

rice, sugar, milk and cinnamon stick in pot over medium heat, stirring.
once it comes to a simmer add the spice mix. Simmer over medium heat 45
minutes or so, until it becomes thick and delicious. Stir in vanilla.

Cool, serve with golden raisins and pistachios
