Do like the simmering pot idea though so I'm moving the spice cabinet to the top of the list.

I have lived in and around Pittsburgh all my life, but for one year when I lived in Boston. We have lots of Peruvian spices. Have to work on the alphabetizing! Thanks for your comments!<br /><br />Peggy, you have to be ms. organization! You clean once a week! You've inspired me to get my act together! If you can do it, I certainly can!<br /><br />Great idea about the simmering spices, Sharon. Mine were too fossilized to do that.
