I now have room and it is soup weather so stock up I will! October was also crazy busy here, though definitely not dry. Seems like ages ago but the beginning of October was our flood. I am quite intrigued by the coconut condensed milk, I'll have to see if we have that here. Seems every time I go to the store there are so many new products.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04345457498157004060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-26787982027600121192015-11-24T02:08:35.425+11:002015-11-24T02:08:35.425+11:00Johanna, you made me smile with your "well-st...Johanna, you made me smile with your "well-stocked freezer" and "sentimental patina" comments. :) The flavors in your veggie stock must be fabulous!
