This one is easy for me—I have a DD and a sister with K names and my mom’s name started with K as well. All different names.

1. Routines. I follow the CAYG method. No matter what household chores I am doing, I try to clean things as I go along. Helps me when cooking, especially when making bigger meals.

2. Mr. Clean Erasers-I haven't found anything yet that they can't clean.

3. Zip lock bags, I am so grateful to the person who came up with those. I use them for anything and everything.

Today's Topic (Sat 1/14) - 3 Products/Tools/Routines that you're grateful for because they help you stay organized or make your life easier

1. I have organizer trays in my fridge and pantry. They make finding stuff so much easier, because now everything has a place where they go all the time. For example, I have a plastic tray that holds the condiments in the fridge; and one that holds the unopened condiments in the pantry; another for popcorn packets in the pantry, and one for sodas/drink stuff in the fridge. Also, things don't get knocked over as much, since the trays have higher sides! That's a big bonus, especially in the pantry, with the wire shelves. I have two can holders on the bottom of the pantry, in the big open space, that holds all the cans of beans, soups, tomatoes, etc, organized by type, and easy to rotate.

2. I have several rack holders in the kitchen. One holds the pots/pans lids; another holds the cookie sheets and wire racks; and a couple more hold all the cupcake pans, cake pans, etc. They do take up a bit more room, I think, but the upside is that everything is standing up so I can see what is there, plus they aren't laying on top of each other, reducing the potential for scratches.

3. The broom/mop holders you put on the wall. I actually have three; one in the garage, that holds the rake, push broom, etc; one in the kitchen that holds my dust mop, spray mop, and broom/dustpan; and one by the cat litter area, that holds the broom/dustpan and swiffer mop that I use only in that area. Easy to get to, and they aren't falling over and getting in the way all the time!

Tupperware !! When then came out with their modular mates
Bins / Baskets - obsession
Notes - I keep running list of what I need to do and mark it off
Labels -
Lazy Susan - I own several - using them in the Pantry in the corners is awesome / also in laundry room / and refrigerator
Draw organizers - again obsession - hardly draw in my house does not have one
Being that DD was once chef we have a ton of kitchen items so organization in the kitchen is most needed !
Clothing closet - I love those 3 or 4 draw dresser - you know the cheapish ones with the plastic draws ! Great for storing items in your closet
Bathroom - baskets under sink to organizer all those little items we all keep in there
Yup I’m on Pinterest way too much
I’m a super organized person so I could go on and on more than usual on this one !!
I’m grateful for my organized brain ! I’m grateful it’s not as bad as OCD organized but it’s close !!

Put one of those old curtain rods across inside of pantry door to store lids to your pots & pans - my pantry door currently has 3 rods but I think I could put a 4th - all my lids fit on them - excellent way to store the lids

 

[WDWEPCOT]

Omg huge fan of tankless water heaters
Best thing ever !!!!

 

[Pea-n-Me]

1) Lysol, but in particular, Lysol wipes (or Great Value brand). I keep some in all the bathrooms and under the kitchen sink; always have a good supply as back up.

2) My iPad Pro and Magic Keyboard. I couldn’t be without it.

3) My work bag. Everything in there I might need so all I have to do is throw in my wallet and my lunch and I’m good to go. It’s like a portable locker, lol.
