 Hey, y'all, it's Tammy with Collard Valley Cooks. We are in Cedartown, Georgia, where I grew up in the house that I spent my 10 years and 20 years in. This house was also our office. And in the back is where Mama lived most of the time. And they have remodeled it and made a little kitchen back here for an apartment. And me and Chris will be using this side when we come home to see everybody. So I'm gonna show you around really quick, but then I'm gonna show you my grocery haul that's going to be my basic stocking for my cabinets, okay? These are the things I just can't live without. We're gonna start our grocery haul. I have decided in this little kitchen that I am going to keep because my dishwasher is here. I tell people if I'm gonna unload the dishwasher, I don't wanna stretch too far to put my dishes up or be awkwardly reaching over to put them up. So I've got most of my plates and stuff on this side so that I can empty the dishwasher, reach around and put them up. And then I'm gonna use this for pantry here. And then I'm gonna use this side for pantry. And this side's gonna be glasses. All right, so we're gonna get started. I'm gonna show you things I cannot live without, things that's my basic stocking. And there's hardly anything that I forgot that I might have forgot just a couple of things, but nothing major. So of course we've got spaghetti. Me and Chris are trying to eat a little healthier so I got whole wheat, whole grain spaghetti. Of course you don't have to, but that's what we used to do. I got the scotty that I like to have for breakfast in the mornings with my coffee. A taco dinner kit because everybody needs one for a night. They don't feel good. And spaghetti sauce was on sale. I got pre-cut parchment sheets because the only other parchment paper they had was that really wide stuff and we don't even have a pan that big here. Elbow macaroni for macaroni and cheese and soup. Slow cooker liners, everybody needs some, right? Tetley tea. Everybody knows I like Tetley tea. Now of course I got freezer bags and storage bags and you can tell some things I like name brands on and some things that don't matter to me. Like Saltine crackers, my storage bags. Those kind of things I don't mind. So you'll see off brands and then you'll see some name brands and some things I gotta have a name brand for. This is my favorite bullion and it's chicken and I got a chicken and I got a beef. And I'm gonna show you the spices that I got on Amazon this week for Amazon Prime. They had a set of spices y'all for 60 something dollars. And I mean, there's a lot of spices in it. Anything you could possibly think of. They even have special things like rosemary, sea salt and all the stuff. Well anyway, I just chose to order that instead of going in the grocery store and picking up a spice of everything I need it. And that makes it easier. But of course they have this on sale today. Pink salmon, pork and beans. Everybody needs pork and beans. Dice free the baggots because Chris don't like them and that way I can eat them when I want to. Let's see what else we got. We got salmon, lime and beans because I wanna make some succotash. I still ain't know that for y'all. Green beans, mixed vegetables. Diced tomatoes, refried beans for top of night. Vena sausages, I love them. Cream of mushroom and cream of chicken. We've got Van Catten's chili. That's what we were raised on. Of course some tuna fish. Evaporated milk, baking powder. All my basics for baking I got. Slice peaches for a quick peach pie or peach cobbler. I think I got cream of mushroom, cream of chicken and I also got some fruit cocktail. Those are pretty much basic things that you gotta have. Baking wise, baker's flake coconut. I don't get cheaper bread than flake coconut. It's worth paying the extra if this is available. I don't get off bread for chocolate chips because Chris don't like them. So I got Nestle totals. This is powdered sugar, brown sugar. I got dark and light and Kroger Breed is fine. Crisco, of course I got rice, pentose, great northerns. I forgot black eyed peas, lime and beans. No idea, and here they are, black eyed peas. You gotta have your dried beans in the rice no matter where you're at. I got dale seasoning, cocoa sauce, red chili sauce. That's a sweet chili sauce. It's not a chili sauce like the Heinz hot chili sauce. This is different, it's more oriental. Pesto is really good in pasta salads. Chris likes Heinz 57 on his steaks. Liquid smoke is good when you don't have a grill and you want something smoky tasting. I got honey mustard, sweet baguette, makes a good one. The light and dark Kroger syrup, I got, they said this was a closeout item so a lot of people don't buy this but I don't really like grape jelly, I like grape G and I like welch's and I like it in this because I can squeeze it on the peanut butter and jelly sandwich. This is olive oil, my corn oil, each of my quick grits. It's our favorite grits. I got a little thing of parm because I knew I wouldn't need a big one here because we're not here that often. Chris likes Dice Jalapenos, sweet baguette's barbecue. Now me and Chris make our own barbecue sauce at home but I'm not gonna go buy all the materials to make it here. Cider vinegar, corn starch for baking, vanilla for baking, all my extracts for baking that I like. I got those today. Some of them are imitation and I didn't have to pay as much. Then I got puddings and I got the cheaper pudding because it was just 50 cents so I got chocolate and vanilla, one strawberry, jello in case I wanna make a strawberry pie while we're here. I did get some golden raisins. Um, when we eat cereal, we try to eat a cereal that's at least five grams of fiber per serving and this one is, let's see, how come I can't see it? I don't know. Protein sodium? It's got enough, let's take our word for it. Six grams. Let's go to the next thing. Six grams, I wanna support it. I know, yes. No way first, but I got the cheaper bread, trisks for salads. This is my favorite white cake mix because you get more in the box. The Betty Cropper is about the only one that still gives you 16.25 ounces instead of 15 point something ounces. So I got two of those. When I buy salt, I buy iodized sea salt. Well actually, I picked up the wrong one. I usually get iodized sea salt and I picked up the wrong one. I got cocoa, bacon soda, not only by Jeff Peanut Butter, pecans. I buy salted butter, I'll get the cheap bread, I don't care. I just got some block cheese, cream cheese, our sausage of course, blue plate mayonnaise, a graham cracker crust. I got the old fashioned oats and I got the quick minute oats, all right? And then over here, of course I got eggs, chips, sugar. I like to get Domino if I can, if I'm gonna be baking because it's finer and it's easier to make candies and stuff out of. Now if you're not making candies or anything like that, there's nothing wrong with getting off bread. Of course, we only use white lily, buttermilk, cornmeal mix, that's a bigot. That's the only thing we use. And then we have light white lily, self-rising flour. And I guess that's pretty much it. That is my grocery haul, my basics. You can't forget your beans, your rice, all the basics, your pasta, and the extra things that help you get by on a night you don't feel good or you want something quick, you gotta get taco stuff and spaghetti stuff and salmon in a can and tuna in a can and things like that. And then today they had 10 ears of corn for $3. And so I got 10 ears of corn and I'm gonna shuck it and cream it. My knives are supposed to come in from rated today. I'm waiting on them. And you can see this is a really pretty, variegated corn. I gotta get the croaker today. Yeah, we don't have croaker down in St. Mary's but there's croakers up here. Yeah, and I saw a couple of viewers when I was out shopping and got to speak to them and it was nice today being at home. And the good thing about this apartment too is like if we have something like corn or like those Brussels sprouts or something and we're going back home, then Melissa can just get them because she's right next door. She's in the... And if she's out of something, she comes in here to borrow it. And if I'm out of something, I can go in there and borrow it. She's right. But I still want to decide. Right through that door. Yeah, right through that door right there. That's where Melissa and Tillman is in the office and we have all of our cookbooks that we mail out to everybody, whether you order them on Amazon or you order them through PayPal. And even when you send in a check, Melissa does all the cookbooks and sends them out. So here in Polk County is where all the mail goes out of. And anyway, we're excited. We're excited. I'm super excited to have my own kitchen here, have it stocked and have it ready. And I'm hoping that you guys will be able to see the food good. And I look forward to seeing you this evening, cutting off the corn and making some cream corn to go with our delicious chuck roast. It'll be delicious. It smells so good already. And me and Chris haven't had lunch, so we're really hungry. So we just thank you so much for watching Colored Valley Cooks. And we will see you tonight. Bye. Love ya.
