In good housewife style, I believe I now have a well-stocked pantry. Not that it's something one can ever truly 'have'. 'Manage' is perhaps the better term.
I define well-stocked by a couple of measures:
1. Being able to shop in the style of "I'm nearly out of eggs. Must buy eggs." As opposed to "Eggs. Wonder where I could buy eggs..."
2. Being able to make a meal without leaving the house when it's 3 degrees and raining. At most moments I can now scrape together a fried rice or a gluten-free, dairy-free gnocchi carbonara. Or at the very least pasta+pesto.
I have been greatly hampered in this goal by:
1. A kitchen most generously described as 'cosy'. My pantry is a drawer, my fridge fits under the counter, my freezer... hang on, I don't have a freezer.
2. Living so close to Whole Foods that the walk from the veggies to the checkout is longer than from the checkout to the apartment.
And still I triumph. mwahaha.
Not sure if anyone wants to know what lives in a well-stocked pantry such as mine. If I'm stuck for another post, I shall describe in great detail.
