cleaning out the pantry

I've already started going through our cupboards to try to use up items; another aspect of moving that I don't like. This is always a little tricky because if I do it too soon, then we don't have anything to eat...And I have to run to the store every day for those back-of-the-cupboard-food-staples-you-always-need to put a simple meal together. But then, if I wait too late, we have to toss opened boxes and bottles of half used items and I hate to waist anything. So at my last inventory, we had an abundance of rice crispies and frozen corn dogs. Hmmm, Guess what we're eating today?
