Raid The Pantry!

[Codymoogle]

Hi all,

I just came back from getting food, and was stocking my pantry. More than half my pantry turned out to be baby or little kid oriented food (surprise surprise ). So, I decided to make a list of AB/AK Pantry stuff. This is my list of baby/kid oriented things that should always be in my pantry - no, they're not all "must haves" but they're things that I'd like to have available every day.

Moogle's AB Pantry (includes refridgerated/frozen foods)

Milk - Multiple uses. Do I even need to explain?

Bread - See Milk. White or rye is my choice.

3rds Baby Food - Most kinds.

Pediatric Drinks - I personally don't like baby formula, so this is the next best thing for me.

Pedialyte - For when I'm sick and need the electrolytes, this is nicer than Gatorade.

Fruits - Whole, sliced, and pureed.

Spaghettios - Yum, these are great for lunch.

Cheese - Cheddar especially.

Chicken Noodle Soup/Tomato Soup - Goes nicely with grilled cheese.

Creamy Peanut Butter - I prefer JIF, but any is good.

Jelly (Jam) - Strawberry is my preference, but I'll eat any kind.

Baby Cereals - Ideal for brekkie.

Gerber Graduates Foods - I love these toddler oriented foods.

Cheerios - Or some other "kid oriented/kid friendly" type cereal such as Kix, Life, Cap'n Crunch, Froot Loops, Cookie Crisp, etc.

Mac and Cheese - C'mon, who doesn't like this?

Hot Dogs - Goes nicely with Mac and Cheese.

Tuna Fish - Tuna sammiches, yummm. I prefer Starkist tuna.

Mayonnaise - Preferably Hellman's. Makes Tuna Fish gooood.

Ketchup - I like Heinz the best. Ketchup is, in my opinion, THE "kid's condiment".

Mustard - Another good condiment to have on hand.

Fish Sticks - Goes great with Mac and Cheese.

Juice - A staple. I like Juicy Juice, V8, and Welch's the best. My favorite kinds are apple, cherry, and grape.

Koolaid - Ohhh yeah.

Nesquik/Ovaltine/Yoo-Hoo - Chocolate drinks that are delicious.

Pretzels/Popcorn - Yummy to snack on.

Yogurt - Great as a snack or in smoothies, or even in Baby Cereal.

Ice cream/Cookies/Pudding - Dessert anyone?! Any of these.

So that's my list! What's yours?

Oh, wah, that's a nice list. XD I can't think of everything I'd want in my kitchen, but, I'll list as many as I can..!

Milk - 'Cause it is milk and all! Though I mostly likes it just in mah cereals.

Eggs - I need them to make my pancakes, and other things..and they're yummy!

Farina or Cream of Wheat - My mommy used to feed this to me all the time when I was little and I still looove it.

Oatmeal - Apple cinnomin please!

Hot and/or cold chocolate mix - That's yummy too, as long as it's not -too- chocolatey.

Mac and cheese - Especially if it's homemade. ^^

French toast sticks - I'm in love with these

waffles - Great with lots and lots of syrup

Cereal - I like a ton of different ones.. just run out of Honey Nut Cheerios, but I have Cap'n Crunch and Frosted Flakes still

Soups and Cup of Noodles - I like chicken flavored ones

Fruits - Mostly grapes, blueberries, pineapple slices

Cookies and cake - Sooo unhappy when there's neither of these around to munch on.

Popsicles - Now these are reeeally good. Especially red and green ones!

Ice cream - I have butternut peacan at the moment..but I like plain vanilla, unless I'm craving chocolate!

Fruit snacks - I have these little sticks of fruity jello at the moment that I'm in love with. >w<

Annnd... I can't think of anythings more right now... I keep running into a blank. e.e
