What are your spices of life?

Its really not good to get into the habbit of adding certain things to everything. Get different tastes sometimes if you leave out usual things and add others :]

Anyway, i sometimes use most that people mentioned, basil oregano blah blah. Curry powder is ok in some things, garlic is better than garlic power, and its summer so i can grow fresh spices in the backyard and use them ~

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yeah, well thats true. But i didn't mean like, overloading a food with a certain ingredient so that dominates, i meant some people might get into the habit of "oh i add ___ to everything so i'll just put some in this too" when i could taste better with someone else, or with nothing at all

There's nowhere I can't reach.

And i guess it depends when / what you add. You can hate a spice a lot if you use it once the food is done, but i guess its safer to be more generous with it while cooking.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

If you're using fresher things, thats true. I don't think it matters as much if its like dried oregano or chives or whatever.

How ya doing, buddy?

Well i guess it was silly of my to mention garlic, but people were calling garlic powder a spice, so yeah.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I guess ginger is ok at times since i'm eating it right now.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
