More Spices

Posted at 7:07 pm MST to Technology

Today is the first time I have left the house since Tuesday, and that's probably just as well. A quick trip to Whole Foods (the ex-Wild Oats) and to pick up my mail wiped me out. I will be so glad when I get over this crud. I've mostly been spending my time working my way through the Complete Calvin and Hobbes, which was on sale for half price at Costco before Christmas.

I had some more of my buffalo-blueberry stew for supper. The gravy was less acid than I remember it, and needed salt. I added a little Girardelli's Double Chocolate hot cocoa mix, too, just to add even more richness. Buffalo and blueberries works well, but next time I need either less tomatoes or sweeter tomatoes.

The week's mail included my second shipment of spices from World Spice Merchants. I'll need to set up and label some more tins tomorrow, and order some additional tins in various sizes.

Yellow Mustard seed (to replace what spilled last time)
Coriander seed
Fenugreek seed
Celery seed
Cardamom seed
Rosemary
Porcini Mushrooms, dried
White Sesame seed
Black sesame seed
Caraway seed
Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
