    I know that buying in bulk saves money and my husband is a big fan of "stocking up" but it sends my anxiety into overdrive. Unless it's something that we truly love and I know we will use, I only purchase a minimal amount. I'd rather spend a little extra than have to throw it away. Everything looks so good! Your hard work really paid off. Keeping a list of what you already have will help a lot. Organizing is so satisfying!

    Saving crystallized honey….either warm it gently in the container in the microwave in short spurts and stir until it looks normal…OR even better, take the crystallized honey and put in your mixer and whip it for about 20minutes, it’s amazing!!!!!

    Good job decluttering! It’s like an onion- you peel off one layer then you start to notice other stuff that you don’t really need that you can declutter and you eventually chip away. Having young kids and a highly simplified house has been life giving! I recommend the Minimal Mom - although I live a very different lifestyle from her, she has great tips of efficiency to help make time for what really matters!

    Contact paper to cover shelves.
    Clear plastic labelled boxes to put stuff in, in your deep shelf cupboards. Then you can pull them out like draws. I did this.. total game changer.. shelves stay clean, you see what you have, so no out of date stuff and easy to take out.

    My house was built in the 50's. This is absolutely how my pantry looks too, and please don't feel alone. I love your labels- I need to get a label maker!
    Also, re: honey, because it's crystallized you could make it into creamed honey- using stand mixer.
    No buy list! As someone who got dx with ADHD last week, that sounds SO helpful.
    Love this vlog!

    I buy plastic bins at dollar tree and fill them with like items. You can pull them out like drawers. I’m 78, so I set up a system where I do certain things on certain days. The first time is a deep clean and then is easier to maintain, for instance, Monday is laundry and bathrooms. Tuesday is living room and halls, etc.

    I do this regularly for my parents. Thankfully, their pantry is tiny, so they can't overfill it, but they do tend to forget what they have.
    I check all the best-by dates and put everything that is soon to expire right at the front so that they can see it. I also make a list of things they have too much of, and stick it to their fridge next to the pad they use for their grocery lists 😂
    My sister is a nurse and does the same thing with their medications.

    First time visitor here! You're so relatable to my undiagnosed ADHD brain!
    My house is 100 years old, and every cupboard (of which there aren't many) was built-in decades ago so there's no standard sizes (or right angles for that matter.) For random-sized cupboards that things tend to get shoved to the back and die, I've been getting plastic tubs or other containers and use them like drawers. The local plastics outlet had some containers without lids so they were 90% off, and I was not going to use the lids anyway. LOL

  • @lorimartin4044
    @lorimartin4044 3 месяца назад +2

    One thing to remember about the baking mixes is that the active ingredients do break down. Like the baking soda or baking powder that's been added. I had an older box of Bisquick and I really wanted to make scones for some strawberries we brought home so I made them even though it was past the date, they didn't rise, I took a small bite they tasted really weird. So I realized yes it's sad that we didn't use them in the time frame that we bought them But they probably aren't going to work. I'm feeling really inspired by you right now cuz I know I have a brownie mix a lemon square mix the cake mix sitting in my pantry right now that I just need to throw away because they're old. Keep going I will too

    Hi Megan!!! Love this one 🤍 my baking cabinet, the biggest game changer was medium/large sized baskets of sections of supplies. One for flours, one for sugars, one for miscellaneous and it’s actually stayed organized for a while. It’s super easy to pull the baskets out and then put everything back in and stay organized!! 🤍

For the rest of them I bought cheap metal baking sheets at the Dollar store and covered them with Contact paper and put one on each shelf and they just slide out easily. No more loosing stuff in the back.

    Keep in mind, only baby formula has expiration dates that are regulated by the FDA. Companies put a date on items that are actually Best By Dates. Baking mixes would of course be beyond best date but canned goods are not expired. Give a call to your local food pantry, they are experts on "expiration dates". Love your channel! PS I'm in a house built in the 1890's. Uhg!

    I hadn’t seen the last name Acuna since I was in 1st grade in the mid 90’s when it was my teachers last name. This is my first time watching your videos since the name caught my eye lol
