An Organized Kitchen

My current kitchen is short on storage space (in my estimation), and because my hobby life is limited to the passion I have for food and cooking, I maxed out every square inch of cabinet and drawer space.  There is even some spill over into the laundry room, something that causes me great discomfort to accept.  So this weekend, because I can do anything I want (it's my birthday on Saturday), I will be picking up some organizational items and really having a go at making my kitchen space work for me.  

A couple items on my list that I already know I'll need:

A very simple spice rack.

A drawer insert for my catch all kitchen gadget drawer.

Shelves to use so I don't stack my Pyrex and Corningware 5 containers high.

But the key to maintaining organization is to plan better, when I'm putting together my meal plans for the week so I don't end up with a stuffed to the brim refrigerator as well. :)

Happy Organizing!

Welcome Guests

It's so nice to have a welcome house guest...enough to motivate one to try their hand at cake pops.  Too bad they were very unimpressive looking, otherwise I would have posted a photo or two. 

Here's to small acts of service!

Style Sunday

Thinking these days....

...of having children and being a mom, what it means to parent a child.  And am filled with squishy, lovey, warm feelings.  And maybe a little bit of fear, only where the laboring is concerned.  Anything worth having takes hard work.  Amen!

Children's Rooms: Then & Now

I found the image below on HGTV's website which is a great resource for home design inspiration.  I have files and files of images I've found from the "rate my space" sections over the last couple years that I hope will guide me as we move forward in life and someday have a nursery and...a real dining room!  *shock*  Those are really two rooms of a home I look forward to. 

Style Saturday (even though it's Sunday)

A debutante in cotton candy pink and a barely there waist.  Divine elegance!

Girls on the Telephone

I've always been one of those girls that really enjoys talking on the phone.  In fact, once I get started, I have a hard time pressing that ominous red "end" button.  There are some people that I can just jump from topic to topic and never tire of their opinions on whatever the subject may be. 

For those ladies in my life...much love to y'all!!!
