got close up and cozy with the fridge freezer this morning… my technique is to use my bathroom stool to sit in front of the fridge while the freezer door is open…

was chilly work, but put like things together and in containers… was a bit surprised with how many little freezer packs I have ;-)…

pleased with the outcome and hopeful that I will remember what went into each of the containers, lol…

cupboards…

spent some time reorganizing the container area in the kitchen cupboards…

still trying to figure out the best system, lol… thought I had a perfect plan…

also made a few things in the Instant Pot… mashed potatoes worked well…

sadly, the pork hocks and cabbage didn’t turn out, but then I used the crockpot feature and got it done;-)…

more learning and experimenting required…

picked up the cutest bowl a few days ago to use at work…

it will replace one that I had previously, but which got chipped…

today I took it to the office and had a salad in it… I think it is going to be the perfect size…

we’ve talked about how coffee or tea always tastes best from a particular mug or cup… I have a little pottery cup for water and a special mug that I have for my tea…

silly, but true, things do taste better out of certain containers…

big girl pants, bowl, ChefsPlate, containers, flowers, harissa, popcorn, purple, salmon, vase, widow

had fun making my supper tonight… another ChefsPlate meal which went into the new bowl I picked up at the Chinese market last week…

Mediterranean Salmon with sun tomatoes and pearl couscous pilaf… also learned that Harissa is a hot sauce… not so wise to dip a finger in it to taste, lol… I like pearl couscous…

enjoying my flowers at home, as well as the ones at the office…

did giggle when I saw how the water in the vase had turned purple…

tonight’s final treat was a bowl of popcorn…

always have popcorn in my fish bowl…

funny how we like certain things in certain containers…

utensils…

Bed Bath & Beyond, big girl pants, brussel sprouts, cold, containers, steamer, sunset, utensils

this morning I woke early, but went back to bed for a bit… when I got up I made breakfast and used my cute little steamer again… getting the hang of it more each time I use it…

  
I have committed to eating vegetables at each meal and all I had left this morning were brussel sprouts… so, I had brussel sprouts with poached eggs and IKEA rösti…. very tasty…

ran out and picked up groceries, so now I have lots of vegetables…  also went for a wander in Bed, Bath and Beyond… took quite a while, but was lots of fun…

picked up a rotating container for kitchen utensils… about the fourth one I’ve purchased in the last year or so, but I believe that this might be the last one I have to buy… think it is going to work perfectly…

  
to fit everyone’s schedule we had a late lunch instead of supper, so when the kids left, it was still light…

 
sun was just going down as they headed out… still really cold out, but we’ve really been enjoying some beautiful temperatures…

organizing…

bowls, containers, organizing

on the weekend I bought some bowls, and containers for organizing…

the bowls were too big to fit in the space I had planned, so I had to reorganize the whole cupboard so that they could fit… of course, once you move one thing, you end up moving everything…

20140526-215409-78849856.jpgeventually I got that sorted out and then moved on to the bathroom… only bought one of each of the containers because I wanted to be sure they would work… had I picked up two or three of each they wouldn’t have, lol…

20140526-215609-78969253.jpgonce I go back and get a few more containers, will be able to finish the job… not mentioning that this space had needed to be organized from the time George finished the bathroom, four or five years ago, lol…

always so happy when some organizing has taken place…
