- Tinned tuna - must have for making a quick pasta or rice dish, a salad, or lunch.
- Frozen vegetables - peas, corn and beans, as well as celery bits.
- Herbs and spice in small jars so that turnover is rapid.
- Plain flour and SR flour. Small purchases made (2 bags of 1kg eah) at a time to stay fresh.
- Eggs (always a half dozen at least), milk (UHT), cream (UHT) and butter.
- Butter - did I mention that? A couple of 250g blocks as well as a few wrappers from old blocks so I can grease pans.
- Vanilla extract.
- A surprisingl number of different types of sugar - brown, white, raw, caster, vanilla.
- Pasta and rice and cous cous and polenta.
- Cheese - grated in the freezer, block in the fridge. Cheddar, mozzerella, parmasen.
A mish mash of a blog - is it about baking? Peak oil? Sewing? Dyeing? Having a kitty? Writing? Crafting? Buttons? Studying? Baking? Midwifery? Politics? Entitlement? Privilege? Getting married? Why yes, yes it is.

I has all of them too, except for the UHT stuff. Although I would add tinned tomatoes, and onions. I don't know how to cook without onions. Well, unless it's dessert of course.
The UHT stuff is for "emergencies" only, although the Devondale UHT cream is really useful! I often don't need a huge amount of cream and it's perfect for whipping.
And yes! Onions and garlic and potatoes are always in my pantry, and tinned tomatoes too!
