Other notes:

• It is an eight day holiday; no need for seven kinds of cheese, though it will last fine for weeks after the holiday if I do go overboard again.
  
• Given the lack of large pareve pot, any gefilte loaves will be baked, so it's worth getting two or more loaves; 9x13 pans or baking trays will fit at least two.
  
• Consider getting a fleishig ladle, now that there's a soup pot (most useful color: red). Also perhaps a pareve spatula (white/clear).
  
• Consider getting a pepper grinder. Also look at other spices I don't already have.
  
• Getting one kind of olive is sufficient unless having an olive tasting.
  
• Once the pints of fruit-things are confirmed to have lasted, pay it forward again.
  
• It is worth getting mayo to use with the tuna.
  
• Fresh ginger is very useful, even without soy sauce or other 'Asian' condiments.
  
• Get sugar. White/powdered sugar for most cooking, brown sugar if making spiced nuts.
  
• Find a kfP lip balm. Really, make the time to do this.
  
• Store the liquid dish soap vertically, however closed it looks.
  
• Get more Maxwell House haggadot.
  
• Taking erev chag off makes for a saner seder. So does eating something substantial an hour or two before the seder starts.
  
• It is worth having a freezer for Pesach. It is also worth moving the microwave out of the kitchen for more counterspace.

Also, check previous years' notes and lists.

Current day of the Omer: 9, or 12₇
