I went grocery shopping last night, which means I needed to organize part of my kitchen cabinets (the others got organized last month, & this one has gotten neglected for a while, even so much as becoming a sortof catch-all for various foods). It's almost like a treasure trove of holiday baking goods! I tend to sometimes get over eager with the foods I hope to make on holidays, & even with trying to meet as many requests as possble. My cabinets end up catching the brunt of it! So just for giggles, here's a little of what I found!
*9 boxes baking squares (5 semi-sweet, 2 unsweet, 2 white chocolate)
*2 canisters cocoa
*1/2 pkg almond bark
*1 bag generic red hots (for gingerbread house)
*2 small bags slivered almonds
*1 bag chocolate chips (& a tiny bit of white choc chips that I've almost finished off, lol)
*1 bag coconut
*1 bag large marshmallows, 1 partial bag lg marshmallows, & 1/2 bag mini marshmallows
*many various containers of sprinkles & colored sugars
*2 tubes sparkle gel
*1 bag caramels (for caramel apples I promised last fall & never got to)
And this isn't including the cabinet with canned goods etc! That has stuff like marshmallow cream, evaporated & sweetened condensed milk, etc. Then there's the many containers of cool whip & bags of cranberries in the freezer! Lol. I'm ready for the holidays later this year!
And in the beverage cabinet, 13 different boxes of herbal teas! We'll leave that to another day. Maybe I should have a dessert & tea party?
