gansie, do you remember way back when we knew bugger all about cooking – I put cloves in pasta once and Ruth made fun of me – looking back, that was a pretty dumb idea – oh well…the only reason we have them now is that for our housewarming party in December my roomies made a muld (sp?) wine thing that used that, cinnamon, and other warm spices – pretty great
Mulled, and I thought they were chocolate chips, and I thought “That’s pretty hardcore, putting chocolate chips in a glass jar on the spice rack-ledge.” *slaps forehead*
i checked out his stove too!
Nice rack!

the spice rack (ledge) was a close second
Those peppercorns (are they peppercorns?) look like they are going to fall.

Damn my ignorance, you could have lied.
