I noticed you commented on not being able to get to your spices very easily. I wanted to offer a tip I learned a few years ago and it changed my outlook on spices.... and that is to lay them flat in a kitchen drawer (if you have one available). I use two drawers. One for the more savory spices and everyday spices. The second drawer for the sweeter spices I use for baking as well as spices not used as frequently. Hope it works for you! Happy summer. <br />Amy Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13182588875236602351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7682312585713348709.post-83325059708949132002018-07-03T03:15:33.042-07:002018-07-03T03:15:33.042-07:00, Tijmen and Veronica are here.

Much like your enjoyment of seeing what's in other people's shopping carts, I really liked seeing how you organized your pantry. I started using baskets to organize my walk-in closet space and my bathroom cupboards and I like what you've done in your pantry. We have a pocket-door-style pantry in our kitchen, since the space is small and there are only two of us, so the cute seagrass baskets won't work, yet I may be able to use them in our swivel-style pull-out shelves in a corner cupboard where I keep my cereal, preservative-free d'noire prunes, teas, honey, vinegar, protein bars, healthy chips, etc.<br /><br />For spices and herbs, I have a large drawer for them and I love it as they are all resting flat and face-up and in alphabetical order. So, when I open the drawer, I can see all of them at once. My paper goods are stored in a large deep pull-out drawer (waxed paper, foil, saran wrap, plastic cups, paper napkins, paper plates, etc.)<br /><br />Re: cleaning supplies (and I am new fan of Grove Collaborative), I store them under the sink in seagrass baskets. My only concern with your current set-up, is that your baby boy may spot them and get to them no matter how natural they are, as I noticed they were on a lower shelf when you were first organizing.<br /><br />I really like the way you have your salad toppings in one place and, separately, after seeing your Trader Joe's shopping video with your tasty salmon lunch, I now make my green salads with your apple version. I bought Brianna's Champagne Vinaigrette Dressing and added diced Pink Lady apples (my favorite!) and candied walnuts and I love the combination!<br /><br />Thanks for your preppers storage idea! Living in Southern California, it's something I had almost eight years ago and then we got rid of it. Time to recreate another one just in case. Thank you so much, Jennifer, for giving so much of yourself in these wonderful videos which improve everyone's daily living and inspire so many of us.

In May I made a list for what I call "the Summer kit". For us it has black turtle beans, jasmine rice, quinoa, salsa, hibiscus ice tea, coconut milk, curry paste, capellini, grilling spices, bbq sauce and instant iced coffee. At the end of August I'll stock the Autumn kit which will have more stocks, beans and supplies for soup making and school lunches. I also re-inventory the spices to be certain that I have what I need for baking. I love to see other peoples pantries!

A few years ago I asked if you would consider a parenting book but I didn’t realize you homeschooled until recently. I have homeschooled my three boys from kindergarten and now the two oldest are in college and I’ve loved every minute.

Aren't the half-camis wonderful? They really are a wardrobe-saver for me.<br /><br />Alexandra, fantastic! Let us know how you like the rebounder.<br /><br />Summer, we don't really have any medications except tylenol and children's tylenol so that just goes in a high cupboard in our kitchen... <br /><br />Gigi, it sounds like your husband is a great cook! That's really neat.<br /><br />Jennifer B., enjoy the de-cluttering process :) <br /><br />Iris, thank you! I think everyone should have prepper foods and water. You never know what will happen and it's so simple to have and store. Much better to be prepared and never use it than to be in a situation where you need it and are full of regrets. I know you agree! <br /><br />Thanks ladies and I'll see you again on Thursday.<br /><br />Love, Jennifer The Daily Connoisseurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13843902889491327636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7682312585713348709.post-45189430288328975352018-06-25T17:47:05.992-07:002018-06-25T17:47:05.992-07:00You are smart to store emergency supplies.

And considering that my husband (the cook in this house) is a food hoarder ("It was on sale!" and "You never know when we might need that!") our pantry is usually a nightmare. Right now it's in decent shape but if I don't stay on top of it, it quickly spirals out of control. The main organizational project we need to tackle is the garage - but may need to wait for cooler weather.Gigihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05467164195744234746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7682312585713348709.post-28074050404041258852018-06-25T14:35:51.341-07:002018-06-25T14:35:51.341-07:00Hello Again Jennifer,

I replaced the scraped items with Kirkland Signature cookware from Costco. So far so good ! Also, I did purchase a Needak rebounder. Wonderful!<br /><br />Thank you,<br />Alexandra Ladylikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00442584908951119679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7682312585713348709.post-27905597842676519712018-06-25T14:20:23.644-07:002018-06-25T14:20:23.644-07:00Your pantry looks like a clean version compared to...Your pantry looks like a clean version compared to mine! So, there is no judgement here. I just need to tackle it. I wonder where you put your medications for the family?! Do they all really fit into your medicine cabinets? Or do you store them in your pantry or a cupboard. Anyway, thank you again for inspiration, as always!

I have my vitamix and kitchen aid on my counter and while I'd rather not, that's my reality right now. I purchased a white half-cami that you recommended from Amazon and love it!! It's not too hot! I'd been using these lace modesty panels that snap to your bra, and while they worked, they didn't stay in place especially well.
