Inside the Kitchen

Inspired by Mrs. Newlywed's "Inside the Kitchen" post, I'm posting my own version of our kitchen must-have's. There are things that we all keep in our kitchen that are necessities. I think a person's kitchen contents say a lot about them. Here's ours:

Cabinets:

* s'mores Pop-Tarts, I never know when I'll have to take a 1:45 lunch and it's a long time between 8:00 & 1:45

* buttered movie popcorn

* cheddar & sour cream chips

* veggie straws

* at least 4 boxes of cereal, I could eat it for every meal

* Velveeta broccoli & cheese singles

* Chef Boyardee spaghetti & meatballs

* canned corn

* canned green beans

* New England clam chowder, for those bone-chilling days

* broccoli & cheese soup, same as the chowder

* canned chicken, for getting the cat out of a tree if need be

Spices:

* our wedding gift 20 spice, spice rack

* cayenne pepper - MUST HAVE

* salt & pepper

* cinnamon, for apple sauce, mmm...

* olive oil (even the doggie gets this every once in a while)

* Worcester sauce (gotta marinate the meat)

Refrigerator/Freezer:

* skim milk

* Smart Balance

* yogurt (not everything we have is junk food)

* chocolate Snak Paks

* dill pickles, for those salt cravings

* cranberry juice, good for the yak!

* Brita pitcher full of water

* ice cream, necessity, I get cranky when I don't have access

* ranch dressing, goes with everything

* Dijonnaise - two words: simply amazing

* provolone cheese

* our wedding cake (it tempts me everyday)

* Sara Lee crustless sandwich bread (amazing, check it out)

* Michelob Ultra (fruit flavor)

* Yuengling or Red Stripe, depending on AJ's mood/what's on sale

Those are our necessities. You've probably derived that I'm addicted to sugar & junk food (most of the bad stuff is mine, AJ doesn't indulge). When my metabolism bites the dust, I'm going to be in major trouble!
