    That reminds me of an old show on Food Network (I think) called Door Knock Dinners? The host would come to an unsuspecting person's door and ask to raid their kitchen and see what kind of gourmet meal they could come up with. Although come to think of it, I don't think I'd be that unsuspecting because the camera crew was usually INSIDE the house when the host knocked... so how did they gain entry with this supposedly clueless homeowner?

    Anyway, I always liked that show. I always wondered what sorts of creations they would come up with in my kitchen. I suppose that was a precursor to Chopped and some of the other reality cooking shows of today...

    I remember that show. Gordon Elliott did it I believe. They'd have a challenge coming up with something gourmet in my kitchen!

    Yeah Gordon Elliott. I couldn't remember his last name and knew it wasn't Gordon Ramsay. Although that might be another amusing show altogether...

    • Jar of Jif Creamy PB. Rarely eat the stuff, but nice to have around.
    • Bar of Trader Joe's dark chocolate with almonds, which I've nearly depleted. Looks like it's time for another TJ run!
    • A box of Earl Grey tea bags (my current favorite tea)
    • A couple Luna bars (might as well eat candy, but love the things)
    • 6 Whole wheat fig bars (blueberry & strawberry)
    • 1/2 a bag of stale sweet potato and beet chips (trash bound!)
    • 2 containers of fage 2% greek yogurt in my mini fridge under the desk. I bring in a little raspberry jam to mix with that.
    • 6 mini candy canes left over from Christmas (I put out a bunch of them for staff and those were leftover)
