Project: Pantry

-
Before we begin, let's remind ourselves that this is a Judge Free Blog.

thank you

Over the weekend I knew that it was finally time to tackle the kitchen pantry. We've never had a pantry in our married life so I was excited to have a home for our food. However, we lacked a system to organize food, trash bags, bottled water, yatayata which led us to this...

I'm ashamed 
The first step was to pull everything out and organize it into piles. Piles like Caris, hot drinks, dips, canned food, this doesn't even belong in the pantry, etc. 
I've watched enough HGTV shows to know that the cute hosts dream up an idea and then their stud-muffin-of-a-carpenter appears to build them whatever they want. 

And I'm no different! Here's what my carpenter came up with. Perfect! 
Surprisingly enough I haven't even opened that JIF Hazelnut Chocolate Spread {yet}
Here's the finished product. It's still packed with food (Moment of prayer as we thank the Lord for our daily bread + Easy mac-n-cheese + Wheat Thins + Aquafina Bottled Water) but I'm happy with the result. 

And if you still think it looks bad, please refer back to the first picture. winkwink.

3 Reasons:  Why It's a Good Idea to Move (Because "The Reasons Why We Shouldn't Move" would be too long &  too sappy)  1. I'm less likely to run into people from Middle School . This reason specifically addresses my 8th grade English teacher. I've probably seen her every year since the 8th grade and considering that that was thirteen years  ago, that's a lot of times. I've always resisted the urge to walk up to her and say, "You never taught me how to diagram sentences! You're the reason I'm not a writer!" But if I happen to see her after I move, I'll take it as a sign and invite her out to lunch...where she might just teach me how to diagram sentences. 2. It's a ritzy, upscale place . We're moving to a place where people are well off. Yes, there will be drawbacks to this and I probably wouldn't pick it if I had a choice (but that's a blog post for another day). While there will be drawbacks, the...

The ultimate Time Out death stare 1. Potty Training Is going well. Less accidents, more jelly bean rewards. It just involves a lot of bending over (ooph!) and huddling in public bathroom stalls together. 2. "Treat others the way you would want to be treated" Would you like for her to take the toy out of your hands? How would you feel if she chased you until you were scared? Would you like for her to start singing while you're singing a song? The Bible says to treat others the way you would want to be treated...yatayata  x a millionHOW MANY MORE YEARS OF THIS 3. "No one likes being ignored"  I overheard my older, wiser, more organic (Jokes. But not really. She uses raw sugar and roasts her own peanuts) friend tell her child this when he was ignoring his sister. I like it much better than "answer your sister" as it makes them think of the other person instead of just following a command. Thoughts? 4. "Stay three feet away from me...
