Established in 1924 The Pantry has been serving Los Angeles for well over eighty years now, after the original property was acquired for a freeway off-ramp The Pantry has been in it's current location on the corner of Figueroa & 9th street since 1950, a historic Cafe/Diner in the center of downtown it sits right up the street from the Staples Center and LA LIve.
Another interesting note is that this restaurant is currently owned by the former mayor of Los Angeles Mayor Richard Riordan......... The Pantry like Norms never closes and is open 365 days a year
Thanks to the Arsenal for the special order of Sceptre Gold II brushes. They're fantastic!

It's been a busy week or so. Canning, cooking salsa, ketchup, applesauce, relish, grape juice and hot sauce.
But I am done.
Well mostly done. Still need to pickle some little onions, candy some ginger, finish making raisins and do up a batch of Ginger Pear Jam. Oh yes, and I still need to make the second batch of hot sauce.
Sigh.

Sorting out and cleaning my kitchen pantry.
Blogged at mesmericmay.blogspot.com/2010/09/decluttering-cupboards.html ....
"I have been trying to simplify my life. There have been a few pretty good ideas that I’ve come up with to find ways to reuse/recycle some of the things I have collected/horded over the years and use to make my life easier/simpler.
So here is one of my ideas. I LOVE coffee. Every now and then a thought fillers though my mind that maybe I should cut down a tad but life is sooo much better for every one if I have caffeine in my life. One of the by-products of my caffeine intake is my coffee jars, which have been sitting/pilling up in the bottom cupboard collecting dust.
My fantastic idea.
Donate my plastic multi coloured and multi sized containers to my classroom kitchen which has nothing and we throw out everything at the end of the lesson *gasp*
Throw out any old/out of date products thus cleaning the pantry
Use my empty coffee jars in a productive way.
Rearrange shelves in a more productive way to help find things and make cooking quicker.
Here is the end product. (3 hours later)
When it was finished the outcome was very good. The glass jars make it easier to see what and how much I have. Furthermore it made filling out my shopping list easy-peasy. My plan is to review this after a month and see if it has made my life easier/simpler. And if I does work then there is no shortage of jars as I empty a new one at least once a month."
Kmart at the Palm Plaza in Temecula has reached the end of the line and is currently working on closing down, this is a small look at the store's closing sale
Pantry department at Kmart
I just moved everything to these shelves in the basement and I have to admit it doesn't look like so much all spread out among the shelves. It does, however, make it so much easier to find everything.
I drew this right before I dove into the big job of cleaning the pantry. This is only the bottom part of the closet, for there are three more shelves above that don't come out to the door facing. What a mess. What a huge bag of outdated food I threw out. What a waster I am. I buy things and forget that I bought them. I know I am going to cook very little, but still I am tempted. I really enjoy this style of drawing. I used the watercolor graphite and the black was again a Pentel brush pen of black ink.

This photo is part of a final project for a photography class at Arizona State University. Using the work of artists such as Thomas Struth, Adreas Gursky, and Candida Höfer as inspiration, I took it to a much smaller scale to try and focus on poverty and hunger in schools. I visited each school in Des Moines, Iowa which has a food pantry for their students and families to use for basic necessities. Over the past couple of years, this project has grown to include one out of four schools in the city. I found each of these spaces to be alike yet different. On the one hand, they all had the same boxes of pasta, the same canned tomatoes, the same macaroni and cheese dinners. Yet each space was unique, from an old classroom to a cabinet in a library to backstage in an auditorium.

Photo from quite some time ago. Since then then number of jams has increased a lot, ketchup has disappeared, beets are almost gone, same with the carrot fennel soup.
this is from a few summers ago - my great grand mother's house. I think this is the house she first lived in when she came from poland. my grandmother owns it now and rents it out...this was right before the new tenants were moving in. i wish wish wish i could live here... if only ...
The base recipe was for pasta e fagioli (pasta and bean soup) but by the time it was on the table it was pantry soup/minestrone.
Blog post - www.helenthura.com/blog/2007/02/28/pantry-soup/
Recipe
Garlic – a couple of cloves, minced. (I mince up garlic and freeze it in teaspoon sized foil packets)
Onion - diced
Carrot - diced
Celery - thinly sliced
Capsicum - diced
Pasta – soup pasta is good, or any small pasta - 150g or so
Beans – cannelloni and borlotti (3x400g tins or so serves 6 easily, drained)
Passata di Pomodoro - tablespoon or two
Tomatoes – 1x400g tin, whole and roughly chopped
Baby spinach - a handful or two
Vegetable stock - how much depends on how much soup you are making (9/10 times we used powder, it is easy)
Either on the stove top or microwave cook the pasta till it is about 7/8 cooked.
Meanwhile heat some olive oil in a large saucepan and soften the onion. Add the garlic and whatever other veggies you are using and cook for a couple of minutes till the veggies start to soften.
Roughly mash one of the tins of beans and add to the saucepan along with the other tins of beans,tomatoes and a little bit of Passata.
In the empty tins pour in some boiling water and a little bit of stock powder and pour into the soup (you get your money’s worth this way, you won’t be throwing out any little bit of flavour). How much stock you add really is up to you as it depends on a) how much liquid you want in the soup and b) what quantities of vegetables you have used initially.
Bring this to the boil and simmer for a couple of minutes and then add the cooked pasta, simmer for a couple more minutes and then stir through a couple of handfuls of baby spinach (basil could also work nicely here I think) allowing it to wilt a bit in the hot soup and serve with some crusty bread.
