Organizing your Spices

I was doing some rearranging of our kitchen when I decided to check my different spices on our counter. I have tons of different spices. Some I have just used once some are those that I used often. I was making sure that my spices are not out of date. It really helped that I have a spice rack where I put some of my most used spices. I do need more spice racks to accommodate all my spices. Being somebody who likes to cook and experiment with different dishes, I have different spices that is not commonly used in our daily menu. Sometimes I wish that store sells a smaller jar of these spices as I always thought it is a waste to buy a big jar and not use it anymore. Recently though, I see in some stores that they sell spices enough for one menu and that is for me is a really good idea.

Anyhow, if you are having problems with your spices in your kitchen that seems like being scattered around, your solution to this problem is to invest on kitchen spice racks. They are very useful and it will help you in making your kitchen in order. It also make it easier for you to look for the certain spice that you need while cooking. Personally, I will for sure need a wall spice rack when we will have our own home. Displaying my collection of spices will definitely be nice to look at in my kitchen.

Spice Racks

I just talked to one of my friends whom I haven't talked for a very long time. We found each other in Facebook and we got reconnected. She couldn't believe how I become I full time wife and mother. I used to be the most spoiled among all our friends but of course time has changed. I have a new life and I am loving what I have become. She can't believe how I became a good cook when the last thing she remembered was, I would rather starve than cook a meal.

When I discover my passion for cooking, my mother-in-law gave me a lot of spices, different spices that most of them I haven't heard about. Together with the spices, she also gave me a spice rack. That made it easier for me because I had my spices arranged where i can see its labels so it was easy for me to find what I need. Having spice racks will ensure that your spices are not scattered around your kitchen cabinets.

I have seen some kitchens with a built in wall spice rack. I think it is a neat idea. A wall spice rack will be perfect for people who love to cook. I know that when I have my own place I will definitely make sure that I have kitchen spice racks that will be very accessible when I cook. I like the one in the picture below.

Organizing the Kitchen

My kitchen look like a mess so I decided to make myself useful by trying to reorganize everything. Because, I love to cook, I have a collection of different spices. These spices take a lot of space in my kitchen cabinet. I am planning to get one of those jk adams spice racks. I like the one that holds 32 bottles. I think that if I can put all my spices in a spice rack it will be more organized and it will be easier for me to look for the spice that I want to use. JK Adams also has glass spice containers and labels that will be a great purchase. I think I will buy both the rack and the spice containers. I am sure that if I have them, my kitchen cabinet will have less clutter.

For the time being, I put some of my spices in the top most shelf of my kitchen cabinet. I just leave all the basic spices that I need everyday in their usual place. I really can't wait to organize them all.

My next project is a pot rack. I want to organize all my pots and pans. The jk adams pot rack that is shown in the picture below is what I like. I have to save first before I can afford to buy this one.
