I finally got my kitchen organized.


In the pantry soups and soup mix are together as are canned goods, boxes of mixes etc. Flour, sugar and all baking supplies are grouped as are other like items and I can see what I have now as they are not a jumbled mess. It looks more like grocery shelves instead of a trash bin.

The very top shelf holds snacks so I have time to think about what I could eat which would be more convenient which I don't have to get out the step ladder and climb for!

I have a notepad inside the door for items I am getting low on so I keep a running list. The spice shelves are on the inside wall of the pantry too and organized so I know instantly where everything is.

Also; the cabinet above the coffee pot holds coffee (regular and decaf), coffee cups and mugs, teas, tea cozy and pretty tea cups for company.
The other side of that cabinet holds breakfast hot and cold cereals, cereal bars, instant breakfast mix, pancake/waffle mix and gravy starters along with the bisquick.

I have drawers where things are more convenient too. The kitchen tools and potholders and trivets are in top drawers on either side of the stove.

I re-did alot of drawers and cabinets and anything I hadn't used last year went to Goodwill so they got a lot of pots, pans, dishes and plastic mixing bowls etc. that someone will get some use out of and I got an extra cabinet!

I just wondered who put all the crumbs in the drawers because every drawer I cleaned out had crumbs in it???
