You really love cinnamon!

My sisters love (or at least used to) cinnamon with butter on toast. It's a fond memory from my childhood.

Although I've only had it twice, one of the greatest things I've ever eaten was pumpkin cheesecake. My then-wife and I tried it the same year Christmas Vacation came out. We purchased it at a restaurant across from the theater. Then the following year we got another.

It was out of this world. I don't know if pumpkin cheesecake is a real common thing, or whether that was something local and special. But I have to tell you, it was really incredible.
