July Home Organization Project: Kitchens and Meal Planning
We're starting to really hit the dog days of summer here, and it's time to take some time off of work! Even if a big vacation isn't in the budget, think about taking some time off and enjoying your own town or city for a week. A 'staycation' can still be as restorative as a vacation. This is a great time to take another look at your kitchen (something we haven't done since February) and tweak your meal planning process. Is it working? What changes can you make (like learning a new go-to meal or taking advantage of the farmers market).
