Oh sweet pantry, how you hold my food so lovingly. Okay, so we are cleaning out our pantry's today! Let's get to it!

Let's Do This!

• Pull everything out. That’s right, all of it. Now, depending on the size of your pantry, this job might take 1/2 hour or two hours.
• Throw out all the expired stuff. Once that’s done, you can begin to organize and put things away. Make sure to have paper and pen with you to write down any items you are in need of replacing!
• Doesn’t it feel good to have a clean pantry? I love it!

Speaking of Pantry's....

After Pics!

Today and tomorrow I will have the after pics in the posts right away because I did them early since I will be out of town. As you're reading this, I'm either on a plane to Colorado or in Colorado with my dear Sally at her Mom Heart conference. I couldn't have finished today's and tomorrow's tasks without the help of my amazing kiddos.

I enabled the help of my darling daughter who LOVES (and asks me) to organize! She did it all folks!

When it comes to cleaning, I don't care how it gets done, just so long as it gets done. She GOT IT DONE. WOOT!

Le Fridge

I'm not showing you my microwave because I still have my dignity. Which is surprising when I think about the other pictures you've seen (and will see).  I love cleaning out my fridge. I mean, I don't like cleaning it, as in washing it down, but I love actually purging the old things, the moldy things, and moving along with a clean slate, ready and open for non-expired food. Here we go.

Let's Do This!

• Quickly take care of any dishes and mess (this should only take 10 minutes or so if you cleaned it yesterday!)
• Open up the fridge, thank the Lord for the abundance of food you have and for making so much of it taste good, and then begin the purge!
• Get rid of everything expired or old or smelly.
• Once that’s done, take everything out and wash down the interior. When that’s finished, organize all your food back into the fridge.
• Breathe a deep sigh of joy. Your fridge is clean. Praise the Lord!
• For the microwave, put some sliced lemons in a bowl of water and microwave it for 2-3 minutes to loosen up the food inside. Then wash it down and get her clean! Don’t forget to wash the exterior!

BY THE WAY! Today is the LAST day to enter the ePantry giveaway for $130 in cleaning supplies! GO GO GO! It ends at 4pm EST!

The Microwave...

I know you have no point of reference because there was no before picture, but just know this: It.Was.Bad.

Onto the fridge...

Everything out!

Yuck.

So this was one of the gems I found in there.

I love my CLEAN FRIDGE!!!! Oooh, that quac salsa looks good...

31 Days to Clean, Day 1: Begin the Kitchen!

Don't judge!

I know. I KNOW. It's bad. But hello, that's why I'm doing 31 Days to Clean!

Today is "Begin the Kitchen" day!

Let's Do This!

Here's what I'm doing, join in if you'd like! First up, put in a load of laundry. After the laundry is started, begin cleaning the kitchen. Focus on the basics:

• Do the dishes (HOLLA if you have a dishwasher and praise the Lord for it)
• Also the pans (yes, even the greasy piled up ones you haven’t wanted to touch)
• Wash out the sink (If you have bleach, plug your sink and fill it with bleach and water and let sit for about a 1⁄2 hour.)
• Gather all the paperwork and stuff on your counters and put it in a bin or a bag and set it aside, you’ll deal with this on another day!
• Wipe down the counters.
• Eat a cookie.

We'll work more on the kitchen tomorrow!

After pics to come and my "Why" for cleaning will be up later today (I'll update this post). Stay tuned! OH, and if you want to have your ePantry cleaning products to you by the end of the week, ORDER TODAY!

After Pics!

It's on.

Clean, clean, it's CLEAN!!!!

Because my kitchen was clean, I felt freed up to cook! Pork butt. YUM.

Are you drooling? It smells SO good in my house right now.

Ahhhh! And then, I had a brownie. :)

Tomorrow, FRIDGE AND MICROWAVE!
