quality friday: getting organized

our pantry has been in utter disarray, and its been driving me CRAZY.

i have to admit, i really didn't realize how terrible it was until my recent efforts to spend a little more time in the kitchen. we have quite the collection of herbs and spices, condiments and sauces, but they were near impossible to find in.

thanks to the help of two extendable helper shelves (and getting rid of a few choice items), we now have some semblance of order.

before...

...and after.

Dude, I'm impressed. I feel like we have to reorganize our pantry every month - there's just so little storage space in our kitchen that we use over half of it for dishes/bowls/etc., and only a shelf and a half for foodstuffs! Sigh. Guess we just need to be grateful that we have kitchens at all, and lots of things to stuff the shelves with. I also can't believe we both have our plaques from your birthday party...or that my dad is making me leave mine at his house and won't let me ever bring it home. :)

The last I checked your blog, I was looking at the photos of the organized pantry... I had lovely memories of your organized side of our dorm room...


Little did I know you were about to embark on such a cool business trip! What a well traveled intripid traveler you have become! I loved the photos of Morocco.
