The Little Guy Living In The Pantry
When I first moved into this lovely home, I thought, I have a PANTRY! A walk in PANTRY! It’s sometimes the little things that make us happy and this pantry was really one of them. We organized the pantry. Put the groceries in the pantry. Put the Pyrex in the pantry. Put the “Costco Paper Purchases” in the pantry. Put the…..the……the…..well, lets just say EVERYTHING went into the pantry! And in short order, that pantry became something you’d see on the TV show “Clean House”! So needless to say, I clean out and try to organize the pantry whenever I can. But I insist there is a little guy that lives in there. This little guy likes living in the disarray and the mayhem in the pantry and does everything he can to mess it up. I say this because I walk into the pantry and find out that all of the “organizing” I’ve done, has somehow been UNdone. Canned items are with the pasta, the cereal is with the all purpose flour and the dishwashing detergent is with the dog treats!
Today, I’m going in to clean out the pantry again. I HATE cleaning out the pantry…..it’s almost as bad as cleaning out the fridge. I’ll go into THAT in another post. As for today, I hope to find the little guy that lives in there and explain that he’s got to GO. Wish me luck…..
