Organize your kitchen for the holidays

This year’s holiday season is about to hit overdrive. Before you know it, you will accept invitations to cookie swaps and volunteer to make some sides for or even host a big dinner or two. This week organize your kitchen for the upcoming festivities.

  1. Have you taken a good look at your kitchen cabinets and pantry yet? Sometimes items have been lingering in the shadows far too long and have gone bad or become host to unwelcome pests but sometimes they’ve been used up without your knowledge. Take inventory of your herbs and spices, canned goods, box mixes and baking supplies. Move the ones you’ll be using to the front of your shelves, get rid of the ones you know you won’t use anytime soon.
  2. Baking and cooking supplies are less expensive, not to mention a lot more abundant earlier on. The earlier you get your holiday plans set, the sooner you can take advantage of sales. Plan your menus and write a shopping list. And check out these apps for help with recipes, meal planning, and “how to” videos.
  3. Aside from the food you’ll be cooking and eating in the next few days and weeks, keep the big picture in mind. These are the days that you’ll be catching up with friends and family over coffee and offering your spare room to guests. Stock up on dry goods like coffee, tea, pasta and soup for quick and easy sustenance for all ages.
  4. You’ll likely be having guests over or bringing edible items to other folks’ home or even giving them as gifts. Take out your linens and survey your serving dishes and transport containers. Do you need some extras?
