One Drawer at a Time - I haven't had to throw much out this week

 


Oddly enough, I have not had to get rid of much with the last few kitchen cabinets that I have gone through.  They are a little better organized now, but overall, they were in decent shape. What I am really starting to see with this process is that it is working for me.  Not having to discard unused things much because I am keeping up with what is in there.  That is a good feeling.

I have found very little duplicates over the past week.  One cabinet has all of my oils and vinegars in it. The opened ones, at least.  And they were all different. I used to be really bad about opening up several different bottles of the same thing because I was not checking first.  Now, I make a concerted effort to look before I leap.  Granted, sometimes things do slip through the cracks but oh well.  I can live with that.  I did make the discovery that I have a multitude of sandwich bags, both ones that seal and ones that don't.  I'm not sure why I do and they've probably been up there for years.  I do not feel like I can part with them just yet though because they my come in handy with some kind of repurposing.  We shall see.

The food cabinets are up next and I am not particularly looking forward to that.  I hope I can get it organized better than its current state. I am pretty sure there are outdated things that need to be tossed. I cleaned out my pantry this weekend and that was just sad how much I'd let go past the expiration date.  Oops LOL  Anyway, I will update you on that fun later on!
