Martha Stewart and I don't see eye to eye sometimes.
I'm looking ahead to what I need to stock my pantry in my apartment. So, off to the internet I go! Martha Stewart's page on pantry essentials is in the top three, and I figured that her list would be a good place to start.
Until I looked at it.
I'm not going to knock the list, I'm sure it's wonderful if you're...actually, I'm not sure who that list would be a pantry primer for. Anchovies? Capers? Really?
Usually I love Martha Stewart's checklists, especially ones like her cleaning checklist. Very sensible list, and easy to follow.
But, back to the pantry. I found a very useful list at The Stone Soup, it's a little bit more than I would consider minimalist but it seems to go in order of priority. A more minimalist list from the same author is both more and less helpful somehow - but I love it.
Tomorrow is more packing, and packing, and packing. I'm also haunting the local Goodwill stores for rose-patterned tea sets and other things that I really will need. Like knives. That's probably going to be a trip to Marshall's or something.
Got to rush out to a discussion in Tempe, so hopefully I'll be able to get back to this soon. Ja ne!
