Most

Oh it's Butter...I have been known to travel 2 hours one way to get really, really good butter. My favorite by far is Kate's Hand Churned with sea salt. you should try it. I also like goat butter to enrich sauces

Least

No so picky about Pepper

Plus making sure I always have proper stock on hand, and making more things from scratch than most of the people I know.

I've reached that point too re: from scratch.

It's a lot of work and, I have to admit that for some things I'm starting to wonder if it's really necessary, if what's on hand at the supermarket is really that much worse. If I read the label and see stuff that I can't pronounce, ya, I'll make it myself.

But I tell ya', I'm getting to the point where I'm reconsidering my obsession re: from scratch.

Have you ever seen my Cornbread, southern style, from Scratch? I'm not quite as obsessive about certain things as I used to be. :biggrin:

"There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who say: this glass is half full. And then there are those who say: this glass is half empty. The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass!" Terry Pratchett
