What did I write on my hand last night while drunk?

Last night, after several gin and tonics, it occurred to me to buy two things for my new apartment which is relatively unfurnished/supplied. I wrote, on the back of my hand, "BP" and "PD". Now I can't remember what they stand for.

I think I was in the kitchen at the time, so there is a good chance they are kitchen supplies, but it may be something else. Any ideas?

Response by poster: I have the vague feeling it was hardware and not an ingredient.

A pump dispenser of some kind, whether for soap or for an ingredient?

Response by poster: I just remembered what BP was!!! It was BOILED PEANUTS.

PD is still up in the air. Perhaps it was another kind of drunk snack.

Maybe it was cookware?

Bundt pan? Pie dish?

I can imagine being drunk and thinking, "I wish I had pie. I'll make pie! Oh, no. I don't have a pie dish. Must write that down and buy it tomorrow."

I admire your taste in hardware, my friend.

One of them is obviously "White board on the fridge".

You can't need it that bad if it's this difficult.

Grab another G&T

Party dip? Papardelle? Peanut dressing? Peanut butter? (I know, it's not a D, but you were writing on your hand, and your were drunk, so, you know).

PD is clearly "porridge dispenser".

We really need a picture to help you adequately. This is kind of like posting about your cats, we really need to see what your scrawled hand-writing looks like.

Pork dumplings? Portable dishwasher? Pecan delights? Pesto dip? Precooked drumsticks?

If you do take a picture of your hands, we could also use a picture of your kitchen, possibly taken from where you were standing or sitting last night when you scrawled the message.
