if i would have to make a trip to store, for ingredients,it more than likely not be made.
I have a huge stock of spices and other ingredients, so a special trip to the store isn't going to happen unless it is something special, especially if it is an ingredient that I'll only need a fraction of. Like others said, long lists of ingredients can put me off of a new recipe. Sometimes the recipe makes the dish much too difficult, more than it needs to be. Luckily I have many, many cookbooks, not to mention the 'net, so if I'm trying something new I can usually find a simpler recipe.
