When we first started Paleo in June of last year. I was unwilling to part with any of the food in the cupboards. I wasn't convinced that Paleo was going to work for us, or that I would even like it. And I didn't want to have to go rebuy everything. So I've held onto it all.
And lately, this one cupboard has been haunting me. It started off as the baking cabinet and then slowly became the last resort for so many items. Today, I decided - enough is enough!
Here is the cabinet before with more items tucked to the far right. I found some gems back there:
I generally live in fear that something will come crashing out of there on me one of these days.
Here is the purge pile.
And the After Picture? Glorious if I do say so myself! The best part, having the extra storage space.
The two top shelves can now hold miscellaneous dishes and my cookbooks.
So what made the cut?
3 Types of salt, coconut oil, two paleo marinades, honey, molasses, some spices, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and of course some grass fed beef gelatin!
Dear Husbuddy.... you're welcome!!
Love this! We just did another round of purging. I kept holding on to things too thinking that we might "need" it sometimes but it has now been over half a year and I haven't needed any of it! Your newly done cabinet looks great!
ReplyDeleteIt is so nice to get it all cleaned out! I've already rearranged that second shelf again :)! I decided I need to make the wine glasses more accessible! Hope to see you soon friend!
