Now that it’s tricky to get stuff from shops etc what silly little things do you realise you’ve run out of.
I’ve run out of peppercorns.
No one is going to die, I know it’s not important but it’s annoying.

What silly thing are you short of?

I’m low on nutmeg.

If you’re at home, you can bake hot cross buns!!

Only if you have the ingredients.

Pearl Barley. I can have a bag for years, use it up and go without for many many months, then this week I used up what was left, realised what a useful item it was... hope it comes in my next shop!

Sriracha, chicken stock cubes and mustard powder. The Worcestershire sauce is getting low too.

@PositiveLife bacon was plentiful at our local Asda weirdly enough. No other meat though! Confused

I dropped my Himalayan salt grinder on the floor and smashed it, lost all the salt!

I've no lemon drizzle cake or cans of coke. The corona diet will work wonders for my waistline.

BrigitsBigKnickers · 21/03/2020 13:22

Branson pickle!

I’m nearly out of oregano. It’s my most used herb. I have loads of fennel seeds though...

CherryTreeTop · 21/03/2020 13:56

Orange squash and gravy
