It has been a good 6 months since i have cleaned out the pantry really good.
And this week is an excellent time to be doing it.
I start top to bottom. I pull everything out and wipe the shelve and sides all down.
As i get the items out of the pantry i check the expiry dates on them, it is surprising how many things you have with out of date or near out of date items.
I then replace the items back into the pantry.
I have 6 shelves.
At the very top i have items that i don't use very often.
The shelf under that holds my cooking, pasta, rice and alcohol box.
The middle shelf holds the items that i use alot, like spices, sauces and anything that i have cooked for the kids
the shelf under that has my bread box, cereals and spreads
The second bottom shelf has all the pantry items all stored in order with like with like items.
The bottom shelf has the extra cereals (behind the potato container), potato container. our foil, paper & cling wrap holder.I also store the kids lunch bags behind the cling wrap, with any softdrink and sauces.
Being coming up to christmas i am trying not to store too much.
