Eggs and onions are on my list, too--I'd say rice, black beans, and ground beef take the other three spots in my pantry! I am newly married and cook for only two, as well--plus, my husband is very picky. It's a challenge! But it is fun learning to get creative with what's there. :)

I don't know, I've been hearing all this stuff about "don't trust the expiration date", so I've started to rely on smelling the food to see if it's good or not, and lo and behold... the expiration date is usually right. My milk smells sour right on the dot...

I agree with the above comment. "Budget" is subjective. Schoolteachers make double what I do, $2600 at Ikea isn't "budget". Can we please see some REAL budget work?

Actually, you're spot on - bathtubs are already being phased out of hotels, so I'm sure they're going to be a rare luxury in homes soon:

I feel like those are pretty neutral colors all around, so you can do almost anything as accents. Teal might be nice.

You've inspired me too, to make some jam and to enjoy/be thankful for the right now, as small as it may be! So, rest assured that while you only made one jar of jam, you inspired many more to make up for it. :)
