I am scared to start purging in my kitchen. We have a huge pantry, which is completely overrun with junk. I am overwhelmed by the thought of purging and organizing it. So I started tonight with one small cabinet instead. The cabinet where we store our plastic containers and lids...yikes!
Thankfully I only had to come up with 10 things, so it's okay for me to start weeding my way through and not get finished tonight. I will probably be in this cabinet for the next 3-4 days, a great source for my daily 10 tossing.
So, seriously, how many plastic containers does a family really need? We are a family of 5, and I do usually cook in large portions, and we make good use of leftovers. I also enjoy cooking for others who have a need, and it's nice to have some larger containers on-hand to deliver food in and not have to worry about getting dishes, etc. back. But we probably have a good hundred pieces of plastic in this cabinet...which ones to keep and how many to toss? Stay tuned...
Today's Round-up:
10 random containers and mismatched lids...straight into the recycling bin.
