Crazy Miscellany
A collection of miscellaneous kitchen madness starting with my spice cabinets/storage containers
When replying to a blog post at CopyKat Recipes today I thought I was so streamlined. So neat and orderly and sophisticated with my Dean and De Luca test tube spice rack sitting innocently on the counter next to the stove, but then I remembered …
I’ve got THREE cabinets with miscellaneous, but necessary herbs and spices.
Oh! And let’s not forget the live herbs. I am about as out of control as the next guy.
Are all these jars and packets and live plants necessary, you may ask? I think so. What happens if I get a sudden craving for Persian Rice? I’m going to need some ground sumac to give it that tart taste and if I need thyme I can simply go to my Aero Garden and clip a few sprigs. Yep, I think these things are necessary so my helter skelter array of herbs and spices will do just fine.
Now, which shelf is the cardamom on?

So this made me chuckle. I need to take a picture of my spices. http://twitpic.com/12nd1c This drives me nuts. Fran, seriously
you have a bit of space there on the top shelf. What to do bout these spices??? I am going to go in and pull out the blends, and see if I can find homes for them. Then I need to think of a storage system.
Check out all the Penzy’s! We have a brick and mortar in our area, but I haven’t gone yet. I’m afraid of what will happen if I go. LOL
