Love it!

Mr Kinzig has been quite the refrigerator tyrant recently, tossing things out 
willy-nilly just because they've "passed their date."  Pffft!  I
can still use 
that tahini.  It won't *kill* you.  The runs will pass.

He also seems to think that we need to implement some sort of limitation on the 
amount of flour I can have at any given time.  Apparently, three bags of 
different sorts of flour is too many.  He should go to my parents' house: they 
have an entire refrigerator door devoted to flour bags & pickles!

emily, flour is good stuff, and we have twenty pounds of rice in the garage 
because it was *on sale*, insouciant grunion
