Kitchen Tips
June 18, 2007
That’s a rather boring title there, but I couldn’t come up with anything clever. Without further ado, here are the tips.
Michelle says, “I use plastic containers and/or lazy susans in the fridge to help stop items from getting ‘lost’ in the back. It’s especially helpful for husband who can only find things in the front.”
I like this tip. I’m constantly losing food to the evil back of the fridge where it goes bad and causes me to make nasty noises when I discover it months later. Must try this tip.
Rebecca says, “I’ve found an easy way to utilize the space on that skinny shelf in the middle of the fridge — put down a cookie tray and instead of losing stuff in the back of the fridge, just pull out the tray and everything on that shelf is easily visible and reachable.”
I don’t have a skinny shelf, but if I did, I’d have to try this one, too.
Giana says, “Store all of your pastas, grains, flours and sugars in sealable containers to avoid bugs.”
Ugh. Bugs. Hate bugs. Just as evil as the back of the fridge. Why on earth did God make bugs? Certainly not to get into my food! So this one’s a good tip, too.
Jackie says, “Do you feel like you never see your friends anymore? Once a month get together in somebody’s kitchen and cook — breads, muffins, desserts, nothing hard and something that makes a lot to share. Then we take home a freezer full. Not only does this save me time in the kitchen all month, but I get to spend time with friends I wouldn’t have seen otherwise.”
Now this one is very original. My mom and a friend used to do this at Christmas. They’d go to one person’s house, bring all kinds of baking ingredients and Christmas records and bake Christmas cookies all day while they played music. A great idea!
Anyone else have a kitchen trick? Please feel free. I’m all for anything that makes my life in the kitchen easier.

I love the idea of getting together with folks to cook stuff to put in the freezer. In addition to enjoying your friends, you get a greater variety of food stocked up than if you had done it all yourself.
