Things I like in the kitchen

Red wine vinegar: so much smoother than apple cider and certainly white vinegar

White vinegar: GREAT for getting hardwater marks off of fridge water dispenser (we have a black fridge so they get pretty obvious).

Toasted sesame marinade: must have for stirfries

Jicama: super yummy, crunchy, tiny-bit-sweet, veggie that is great with beans in a salad.

Rainbow Light vitamins: discovered them when I was preggers and they are super great; don't get nearly the nap urge in the early afternoon that I get without them or with a generic vitamin.

Find them at Whole Foods. And, yes, I keep mine in the kitchen.

Stevia: NATURAL sweetner. Extracted from a leaf and actually shown to have health benefits not just lack of side effects.

Lemons & limes: South Beach Diet recipes got me going on them and I can't live w/o them.

Hi-ball glasses: even drinking V8 is more fun from a hi-ball!

Veggies in my eggs: we're all supposed to be eating pounds of veggies per week. Why not put 'em in your breakfast?

Glass mixing bowls: fabulous! I only have one (thanks Jess C!) but I use it every chance I get.

Real butter: for the love, lets stop using fake fat! If it's gonna have fat in it, it may as well taste good!
