Want to See My Rack?
I was tagged by RTK for the Show Me Your Rack meme. I just couldn’t resist. I really like showing off my rack.
I have three places I keep my spices. All the bulk spices go in the plastic basket. It is usually in the pantry but I figured it would OK to pull it out and show you. The second is an actual rack in the cabinet beside the stove. That is where all my spices are supposed to be. But, when I use a spice I put it on top of the stove. Every few months I put them all back and start over. You can see the leftover spices from my fall baking. Judging by the orange sugar in the middle, the last time I cleaned up was when I made Halloween cookies.
My most unusual spice? I don’t know. I think the usual spices change depending on where you live and what you cook. I have a lot of different curries. Maybe the vaious bags of mustard seeds? I also like it hot. I have a variety of dried peppers. Would fennel seeds be considered unusual? I use them for fennel seed cookies.
Here’s how you play:
1) Take a picture of your rack. (You get to decide which one)
2) Post it on your blog.
2b) (optional) Answer the (2-part) question: what is the most obscure spice you have, and why do you have it?
3) “Tag” several other people whose racks you’d like to see
I want to see everyones rack. You’re all tagged! And if I don’t know yet, what better way to introduce yourself?
I don’t have a spice rack. I have cupboard where I keep my cereal. does that count?
I have no spice rack either. Does a CD rack count?
/we appear to be 0 for 2 so far ;)
Yikes! Get thee a gas stove!
Fennel seed cookies sound yum.
Nice.
NO CHEEZ WHIZ!!?? wtf? ;)
Dan – Show me your cupboards big guy!
Bill – You have no idea what a cd collection does to me. Show me baby.
RTK – It was all we could afford when we moved in. We were going to replace it when we had some money. That was 12 years ago! Fennel cookies are good. Want the recipe?
Amelia – Thanks.
Mamazilla – I hid it for the picture :)
Recipe? No. I want a batch via UPS. :-)
I always find racks somewhat spicy….I guess my old tupperware lazy susan doesn’t really count….:):):)
RTK – Only good boys get cookies for the holidays.
Robert – Sure it does. Show me that lazy susan!
Tasty rack! Funny post.
Josh – Glad you liked it. It was RTK’s idea. He has good humor just poor humor judgement.
