	By Julie Elaine Brown, M.A., Nov 25, 2008 Thank you Emily, for making this subject so easy to understand. I'm not saying I've gone out and bought these things (yet), but at least I am thinking about it. Thank you again!

	By Lois B, Jan 22, 2009 I agree with you on that. Maybe if I make a print out list and take it with me to market...

	By Victoria Klein, Dec 11, 2008 In just the first minute, I learned of 4-5 items to have on-hand all the time. My boyfriend and I end up eating out far too often because we just don't know what to make ... and usually only have pasta and sauce around.

	By Lalyn M, Sep 13, 2009 Thank you for this great video. Glad to know about the benefits of coconut milk, a usual add in to my Asian recipe cooking. Helpful tips about canned tomatoes which I am not a great fan & usually don't have in the kitchen and tends to limit my recipe choices. Useful tips on the potted herbs too, basil and rosemary are my staple herbs...happy to learn from you and looking forward to your next video :)
