My spring cleaning and organizing

This is the kitchen finally deep cleaned and organized. Good thing for rubber bands, Bridger is trying to get into a cabinet he shouldn't get into. :)
This is my fresh fruit on display station. I pre-washed all my fruit so it is ready to grab to eat or throw in the blender for a smoothie.
Ready for a snack? I put all of our snacks that we eat in canisters on display as well. now they are just a grab away for the kids and us to eat. This will help with the independence and teaching self control to Gideon, but I may just have to move the chocolate chips and jelli bellies. You only can give a three year old so much temptation. :)

This is my cutting center. It is right next to the sink so easy washing. I have cracked wheat, oatmeal and sugar in the canisters so hot breakfast is just a grab away as well.

Do you have extra baby food jars? Joseph and I put our spices in the baby food jars and on display. I love seeing my spices. I have them labled on top of the lid. I will eventually paint the lids black and use a white out pen to write the contents of the jars. It works really good.

So it feels great to de clutter and feel refreshed after a good cleaning. Now I need to tackel the other rooms for their deep cleans. I got the guest room and bathroom don e and it feels good to have them sparkeling clean.

Your kitchen looks amazing! I do love your plant, is it a succulent? Pre-washing your fruit is a good idea, I need to try that. You are so organized with your house and time!

Your kitchen looks like it's out of a book! It's cute! You are so good about organizing everything! I'm glad that you guys were able to go to Shankz or whatever it's called, sorry I never got back to you before you went to tell you where it was, I felt bad, but then I was excited to see that you went. Crazy how much snow you guys have!
