Question of the Day, Friday, November 11

[Winchester]

Good morning! And Happy Friday! (A nice 3-day weekend here for me)

Easy question this morning: What are three ingredients or foods in your kitchen that you never run out of?  (Not including water or cat supplies)

With me, it's sugar, flour, and yeast.

I have these big glass jars that I keep my flours and sugars in. As soon as I dump a bag into whatever jar, I immediately put that on my grocery list, so I won't run out. Especially during the holidays.

For yeast, I buy a pound of instant yeast at the end of every year and that sees me pretty much through the next year; I keep it in the fridge.

What about you? Is there anything that you keep on hand all the time?

 

[Norachan]

Coffee, sugar and soy milk.

You do not want to meet me on a morning when I haven't had my coffee.

 

[di and bob]

Coffee, creamer, and milk for my husband. ALL ELSE CAN WAIT!  My first hour in the mornings is mine, just me and my coffee, it's been that way for 50 years!

 

[bbdoll22]

Coffee, milk, butter.

 

[denice]

Coffee, milk and sugar

 

[Columbine]

Coffee, tea and almond milk. Most other things I can work around, but I'm lost without these :lol3:

In terms of food, it'd be gluten free oats, gluten free flour and sugar - dad has to have his oatmeal every morning, and I have to be able to bake for him. (he gets so sad if there isn't homemade cake and some sort of hot pudding - by which I mean old fashioned English puddings - in the house )

 

[jcat]

Coffee, cream, and peanut butter.

 

[LTS3]

Milk, cookies or crackers of some sort, cans of soup.

 

[AbbysMom]

coffee, garlic and butter/margarine.

 

[micknsnicks2mom]

it's flour, yeast, and sugar here too! but also peanut butter, because i absolutely adore it! i buy many food related supplies in bulk, and i carefully budget for and reorder supplies before i run out of them.

 

[artiemom]

tea, coffee, yogurt  and I have to add peanut butter..

 

[DreamerRose]

Cat food

 

[margd]

Cous cous, cat food, diet coke.

 

[sivyaleah]

Coffee, some kind of milk for coffee (but not powered or fake).

Maybe eggs for the 3rd. One can do a lot w/them.

Coffee is the most important though. Right now we're out of regular ground coffee but we have plenty of espresso pods to make lattes so that works. Oh and some French Roast beans are there also just in case we want to use the press.

 

[muffy]

Cat food, diet coke and some type of desert.

 

[DreamerRose]

I should have added mayonnaise and black olives. Can't get along without those too.

 

[kathyfromcanada]

Earl Grey tea, lactose free cream and of course chocolate. 

 

[Kat0121]

Coffee, half and half and vodka

 

[Mamanyt1953]

Coffee, French Vanilla creamer and tea

 

[Primula]

Coffee, half and half and vodka

LOL at the vodka. Priorities, right?

For yeast, I buy a pound of instant yeast at the end of every year and that sees me pretty much through the next year; I keep it in the fridge.

Yeast is so intimidating to me. Whenever a recipe called for it, I would immediately discard that recipe.

I always have Smart Milk fat-free, cheese & nuts.
