Listmania: Grocery Items

This is a list of what we keep in the house food-wise. It evolves and changes. Sometimes items for a specific recipe are added and sometimes I don't have all these items on hand... but it's what's commonly needed in our house.

I use it as a master list that I keep in a word file. It helps me keep track of items that need to be bought or made and also the best sale prices so I can note when something is on a really good sale and can be stocked up on. I thought I'd share this master list on my blog...

Note: * indicates homemade items. (I hope to add *'s to more and more items!!) 
indicates organic items. (We buy specific items organically when we can. For example, potatoes because they are so heavily sprayed and cream/butter because toxins are stored in fat.)
