Tips For An Organized Spice Cabinet

This weekend I had a couple hours when my love for organizing and my love for cooking collided. It was a needed collision! My spice cabinet that had been in good order at one time, had sadly gotten out of hand.

Tea Towel Turned Apron

I have a new episode on the Refresh Her Podcast today. I hope you’ll listen and also share it with others! If you’re dealing with difficult people, this episode will give you a fresh perspective!

If you have a roommate, or you’re alone in your home, you are also creating a space where you can invite others in and ultimately share the Gospel. Where does that kind of fellowship usually happen? In the kitchen!

Your Kitchen Counter

What is the state of your kitchen counter at this moment? Check one below:

  • What counter? I have a counter?
  • If I don’t know where to put something, it gets piled here.
  • There’s NOTHING on my counter.
  • It’s cleared, clean and even decorated.

Since the kitchen counter is pretty much the center of the activity in the kitchen, how about a little inspiration to spiff it up a bit?
