Survey #241—Full Response from Lee
| Pronouns | She/her |
|---|---|
| How often are you troubled by clutter in the kitchen and/or pantry? | My kitchen usually has some clutter. |
| What sources of clutter or specific issues do you experience in the kitchen or pantry? | Some items are on the countertop because I haven't made space in the cupboards yet. Had done a fair amount of work on decluttering the kitchen about 2 years ago while hubby was out of town and cleared significant counterspace then, but never got back to it after his return. Am hoping I can tackle more in the kitchen during his next lengthy travel, but by then it will be time to start working in the yard, so we'll see... |
| What organizing solutions or strategies have you tried or used in the kitchen, and how have they worked—or failed to work—for you? | Extra long and width-expandable silverware organizers for kitchen gadgets. May have gotten from Bed Bath and Beyond? 3-step rack for spices. Can see and reach all of them now. Plastic coated wire racks with legs (there is probably a name for those) that serve as additional small shelf in the cabinets. I have several. They can be turned in either direction depending on what you want to put on and under them. Have them in a pantry cupboard also where I store thermal lunch bags, thermoses, and some deli plastic containers for sending leftovers home to others. |
| What “one-trick pony” resides in your kitchen or pantry? Why do you keep it? | Yogurt maker (on a high shelf, but would like to try that again). Potato ricer - used every Thanksgiving. Waffle iron - hubby would be happy it if I used it! I have the space (and the places these items are stored in are not super accessible), so I don't plan to part with any of the above. I don't consider it clutter if the kitchen is functional, and mine is. Just a few items that if I fit them in a cupboard would make it easier to wipe dust off that area of counter. |
