Building a Basic Pantry
Whether you're a college student, just got married or are moving into your first apartment, cooking for yourself can be overwhelming—especially if you're starting from scratch. While the Food Network may seem like the obvious place to start, the trick is to begin with simple recipes and work your way up to more complicated dishes.
Before getting started, make a list of all the ingredients you'll need to create a well-stocked pantry. The following items are just suggestions, so don't run to the grocery store and buy everything on the list. However, most of the ingredients are basic enough that they can be used to make a variety of meals.
Various Oils: Olive Oil, Sesame Oil, Peanut Oil, Vegetable Oil
Spices: Oregano, Basil, Rosemary, Parsley, Tarragon, Cumin, Crushed Red Pepper, Thyme, Bay Leaves, Paprika, Cayenne, Ginger, Mustard Powder, Marjoram, Allspice, Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Salt, Pepper, Whole Black Peppercorns
Extracts: Vanilla (a must), Lemon, Peppermint, Butter, Almond, Maple
Basic Staples:
* Baking Soda
* Baking Powder
* Corn Starch
* Flour
* Sugar (Powdered, Granulated and Brown)
* Yeast
* Stock (Chicken, Beef, Vegetable)
* Maple Syrup
* Cooking Wine
* Milk
* Butter
* Eggs
* Mustard
* Lemons (or Lemon Juice)
* Mayonnaise
* Garlic
* Hot Sauce
* Onions
* Parmesan cheese
Check your basic staples periodically for expiration dates. Believe it or not, even baking soda has an expiration date. Replace them as needed so they are always fresh and available for when you need them. Buy perishable items like milk, eggs, fresh vegetables, cheese and meat in small quantities so you have a chance to use them before they expire.
Other Handy Pantry Items:
* Dried Beans
* Pastas
* Spaghetti Sauce
* Canned Soup (Cream of Chicken or Mushroom)
* Various Cheeses
* Sour Cream
* Cream Cheese
* Canned or Frozen Vegetables (usually frozen taste better)
* Potatoes
* Celery
* Carrots
With just a little time and effort, you can learn how to make simple dishes that are much more satisfying than microwave dinners, not to mention much cheaper and healthier. Try adding cooked ground beef and frozen vegetables to your favorite spaghetti sauce and pour over pasta for an inexpensive Italian meal. For an easy casserole, mix cream of chicken soup with cooked rice, leftover chicken and frozen broccoli, top with cheddar cheese and bake until bubbly. Another option is to top salad greens with a variety of ingredients, such as chicken, ham, tuna, chopped egg, carrots, green peppers, diced fruit, raisins and nuts for a healthy, easy meal.
Once you get comfortable making a few basic dishes, try substituting different meats, vegetables and spices to add variety—the possibilities are endless. To find other simple recipes, ask friends and family for suggestions or go online to search the countless recipe and food sites.
Good luck cooking! Link

Many JOB options for Wolverine in this global recession
Balloon-animal artist, High-voltage electrician, Prop comic/juggler, Obstetrician, Deep-tissue masseur, Dental hygienist, Ship-in-a-bottle assembler, TSA screener, Attendant in library rare-books room, Quality assurance inspector, gossamer scarves. They are from NPR's Ten Jobs Not Right For Wolverine
Additional ideas from readers:
Wet Nurse, Embalmer, Opthalmologist, Art restorer, Tire installer, Microwave tester, The guy that dusts the paintings at the Louvre, Film editor, pre-digital era, Veterinarian, Cardboard-box assembler, Professional Dodgeball Player, Proctologist, Trapeze artist, Horse Whisperer, Glass Blower, Hosiery fitter, Electrician, Terrible blogger, Actor, Otolaryngologist, Grief counselor, Puppeteer, Waiter (can you imagine if he got stiffed?), Hand model, Dog Groomer, Pizza maker, Hospitality specialist/Cruise director, News stand attendant, Cigar roller, NASCAR pit crew member, Banjo/guitar/cello player, Social worker, Football player, Secretary (imagine the keyboard), Teacher, Gym coach, Hot air balloon operator, Bouncy castle rentals, Middle manager, Director of foreign policy, Nanny, Anger Management Counselor, Circumscissionist, Massage Therapist, Personal Assistant to the Bubble Boy, HazMat suit quality controller, Janet Jackson's wardrobe assistant, Skydiving parachute packer, Sign language interpreter.
Some of the comments are creative, valid and humorous. Wolverine only has his claws out when he goes "berserk" in rage. So he'd probably be just fine in most of these positions. Now if he worked in customer service we might have problems.
Many jobs he'd be graet at (when in rage):
Awesome club bouncer, Cutter at Benihana, Mailroom clerk, Sushi Chef, Salesperson at bakery, Gardner, Barber & Edward Scissorhands II.

Doggie boot camp is needed! Mocha "pissed" me off, teenager uprise.
4.29.9 & 5.1.09
Decided to protest to MAMA and added extra color to the family and living rooms.
Nikki is a pisser too

Half eaten chicken wing
Mocha was a thoughtful thief. She thought the chicken wing was lonely on the kitchen counter, so she decided to show E&R how it is done. Wish it was a kodak moment.
