Fridge-O-Rama
Well Sam started it, with her post talking about Rancho Gordo beans and St. Benoit yogurt, among other delectable Bay Area things - so I thought I'd follow suit. Mine isn't quite as artisanal - but it is unusually well stocked today. On the left we have some butter - both organic and Plugra, some Flax meal, Grey Poupon, flax oil and organic pickle relish. Bottom left we have some Taittinger, Pellegrino, sparkling Martinelli's and a bottle of Beaujolais Nouveau that probably should have been drunk months ago.
In the center, you can see lots of Stone beer, some Sriracha, cheeses, organic eggs, produce, Ezekiel 4:9 bread, and various jars of jams and condiments up top. I really need to sort through those! On the right are some more assorted condiments - and the milk - looks like I need to buy some more when I go out today.
One reason there's so much beer on display - tonight we're having people over for the De la Hoya/Mayweather fight. We're ordering pizza from Gaetano's, but I am making a salad with bleu cheese and candied pecans to go with it, and I made a batch of Tartine's brownies last night. They are good, but not exactly as I remembered them from the bakery. They seem more like a very dense flourless chocolate cake than a brownie, and I think I like a little more chew. I've been toying with the idea of making some mint margaritas, in honor of both Cinco de Mayo and the Kentucky Derby - we'll see if they have some fresh mint at the store!
What's in your fridge?

Oh, you guys are so good with the non fat milk! I just can't get myself to do it.
Hope the beer and pizza went well
That is one organized fridge.
marvellous fridge! - I cant open my fridge door more than 90 degrees because of a wall next to it.
remember! champagne is for drinking not keeping ;)
what do you use the flax seeds and oil for?
Udderly delicious - we always keep nonfat milk (organic tastes soo much better than regular - really!) and half and half, so we can mix as needed. The half and half is for coffee, mostly.
Peabody - thanks! My husband had just stocked it, he fills every available inch with bottles, which makes it look organized even when it isn't! :-)
Sam - don't worry! We always keep a bottle in there, but we cycle it out fairly frequently. The flax seeds are for sprinkling on cereal or putting in homemade granola, and I take the oil by the spoonful, like medicine - for Omega 3's. Some people can use it in food, but the taste is too overpowering for me. I can barely tolerate it as it is, and in fact I don't take it as often as I should. I just took some yesterday after writing this though!!
Hi fellow DB! You are very organised in your fridge, mine is half regimented and half 'I think I can stuff it in there'!
I'm so envious of your enormous fridge!
Looks to me like you have at least a week's worth of milk left...at least in my household.
Holy beer...I was gonna say.
Foofoo butter, too! Man I can't bring myself to buy expensive plugra, I just don't see the point. It can't be THAT good, can it?
