Kitchen inventory

I won’t copy this to the CookOrDie page because I’ll keep a separate updated copy there. =)

- 500g ziti, cooks in 9 minutes
- 1 can Skyflakes
- 1 large package of Lay’s Classic Lightly Salted potato chips, have no idea when we got that but the package is dusty
- Glad zip-lock sandwich bags
- Glad zip-lock freezer bags, somewhat larger
- aluminum foil
- microwave plastic wrap
- open package of approximately 200g fettuccini, cooks in 6 minutes
- 1 cup instant yakisoba (spicy chicken, of course), for emergencies
- 100g Carne Norte
- 85g liver spread, probably not mine as I don’t recall ever buying liver spread—or ever being tempted to, after that enterokinase lab experiment in biology class
- 1 loaf of white bread, mysteriously not yet moldy (consume before 2004.06.30), don’t remember buying this one either
- 85g salmon spread, definitely something I didn’t get
- 130g vienna tidbits (not mine, but probably borrowable)
- 2 boxes Nescafe 3-in-1 coffee mix, definitely not mine as I don’t drink coffee
- half a package of dried red kidney beans, the remnants of discarded chili experiments
- half a package of taco seasoning mix waiting for the next time I try tacos again, which probably won’t be anytime soon as (a) lettuce is darn difficult to keep (I want one of those funky lettuce keepers!), (b) I already figured out tacos, and (c) I lost the instructions.
- 1 can garbanzos / chickpeas waiting for me to remember to buy a lemon and try making hummus; this was related to the pita experiments, I think
- 1 box Swiss Miss rich chocolate, for emergencies
- 1 package instant spaghetti carbonara, for kicks
- 1 serving of fusilli, funky spiral pasta
- 100g corned beef guisado (carne norte pre-sauteed with garlic and onion bits)
- 115g mushrooms (sliced stems and pieces), because oyster mushrooms feel weird
- another can of 115g mushrooms, sliced stems and pieces, probably because I forgot I already had them
- 1 package instant yakisoba, spicy chicken, but not in a cup
- 165g chicken chunks in vegetable oil, just in case I ever feel the need to try chicken in my diet
- 220g pork and beans
- 315g spaghetti sauce; why do I have a can of spaghetti sauce? Usually I just get the foil packs. Hmm, I think I couldn’t find classic Italian seasoning in foil packs that day…
- 1 package instant carbonara (San Remo)
- Ricoa chocolate powder (wheeeeee!), for emergencies
- 100g beef loaf
- brown, unpolished rice
- four tablets of chocolate, not that I’ve ever figured out how to prepare Spanish chocolate nicely
- 1 small can of pineapple chunks
- 1 package instant pancake mix, not that I ever wake up early enough or energetic enough to make pancakes
- my own set of measuring cups, at long last!
- assorted plastic containers, some slightly deformed because I used them for cooking. I really like the set we got at Rustan’s Makati; I can cook with them, and they have built-in air holes…

Spice rack:

- Italian seasoning, of course
- Minced garlic, dry
- Rubbed sage
- Kikkoman soy sauce
- Olive oil, mild
- Iodized salt
- Black peper, ground
- Lumpiang shanghai seasoning mix, probably for next week’s experiments
