Kitchen Tips May 21, 2009 by Jodi Granok - Organizing Magic, LLC
I
love pairing activities together. Every Monday evening, my husband
takes the trash out - but first, we clean out the refrigerator. I check
all of the leftovers to see if they are "past their prime". Then I check
the expiration dates on all items, and pitch the ones that are no
longer fresh. Finally, I go to the crisper and look at all of the fruits
and veggies to make sure nothing is getting slimy or growing fuzz!
We
keep a grocery list on a magnetic pad on our refrigerator, so as I
pitch expired items, I write them on the grocery list. I also check the
pantry, and add any items that we are running low on.
The best
part - I don't have to worry about spoiled food making our trash (and
kitchen) smell bad, because the trash is taken outside immediately after
our "pitch party"!
What kitchen tricks do you have? Let me know!
