Organizing the Pantry

For months I’ve been meaning to organize the pantry. To put spices and bulk foods into glass jars. To label everything. To toss the old stuff (like foods containing gluten, which we don’t eat anymore!). To donate our BPA-laced canned goods. To group similar items and reorganize where we keep pretty much everything. It’s such a mess in there.

Step 1: Gathering supplies

I’ve saved glass jam jars and their lids. We’ve bought giant half gallon Mason jars when they were on sale at our local hardware store. David and Miss Leyba picked out two liquid chalk pens at my request so I can easily mark the jars and the labels will easily wash off so I can relabel indefinitely.

Step 2: Getting started

I’m all set to start. What’s stopping me? Evidently I lack is the drive to get going. I still need to wash the mason jars and that’s really holding me back.

Now that I’ve posted about this, the pressure is on.

Ready, set, go!

Laughs. I’m still sitting here. Well, it was worth a try, right?

Stay tuned. I’ll post about my progress. Really.
