what the spice situation is like at the house? (should i raid my mother's spices before i leave?)
we has lots of dried spices. threw away the sketchiest spices so you may want to bring thyme, coriander, dill
cumin, oregano, chili powder, cloves, bay leaves, cinnamon, turmeric, dried mustard, cayenne
no dried mustard, cloes, cinnamon, tumeric. i am not positive we have bay leaves.
