What's in Your Spice Rack?

There's only eight week left before Thanksgiving and the start of the holiday season. Do you know what's in your spice rack?
How long has that big container of nutmeg been sitting in the back of all of the other spices?
Is your baking powder, baking soda and cream of tartar fresh?
Don't wait until cooking day before you find out that you need yeast.
It is said that spices should be bought in small quantities. And that you should replenish spices every three to six months.
Another thing that you might want to do is go to that new ethnic market that just opened in your neighborhood. See what kind of spices they have on hand. You might find something that will update the recipes that you've been using for years. Or you may find that certain ingredient that you've been looking for for that recipe you put away a long time ago.
I visited a spice store in Philadelphia that sold smoked paprika and smoked salt. Both are ingredients that go well in a lot of dishes that I make and will never be without.
At any rate, spend some time smelling and asking questions about new spices. It's fun.
