A Handy Tip for All Those Small Appliances You Have Grouped Together
My pantry… I’ve posted about it before with all the messy before pictures and the satisfying after pictures but it doesn’t magically stay nice and tidy. For me it’s one of those things that require my attention occasionally. It just went though a thorough cleaning again. I’m loving the open floor. I was tripping over things. Now, I can actually walk in there and turn around without some type of calamity happening. This is hard to look at, I know. It’s almost never this bad but it had reached an all time low. But look! It cleaned up real well. 🙂 My appliance counter before. Just awful!!…

31 Days of Kitchen Inspiration Day 25: Fun Ways to Dine Part II, Camping Out
I barely got today’s post up but since I’ve almost reached my goal of writing the whole month of October on Kitchen Inspiration, I couldn’t quit now! So here it is. Quite late or early depending on where you live. (It’s 11:30 p.m. here. 🙂 ) I asked my sister if she would consider letting me put some of her anniversary photos online for this weeks theme of Unique Dining Experiences and she agreed! All it took was some arm twisting and bribing. (Just kidding.) Thanks, big sis! She even let me post her water heater closet turned pantry online. She’s just too nice or it may even be that she loves me so much she…
