While I was preparing the Easter items the hubby was taking time at night making drawer pull outs for the kitchen pantry cupboard. They are finished and work as beautifully as they look. The guy really loves building things now.
LOOK!
FIVE DRAWERS!!! Count em!
one ,two
three, four, five!
The bottom drawer was place so as not to waste the bottom portion which was impeaded with the hinges from the doors. So he placed a shelf pullout right on the bottom of the cabinet which is tall enough to hold 4"+ baking pans/cupcake pans etc. This drawer did not really need sides to it.
The other pullouts all have sides and backs. You would not believe how many things were "lost" in the old design of this pantry. It was deep and dark and difficult to get into. Not just kitchen tools of various types but food also! Boxes of pasta, rice, new bags of flour that became old waiting to be found and placed into the flour canister (maybe I should bake more?)... even ice cream cones! All of this waste drove the hubby ~~c~r~a~z~y~~. I became immune to it after awhile... not good. I used ONLY the first 6" of one shelf and ahlf of another shelf.
Now I will be able to make a meal with ease. No more crowding nor waste...hopefully.
I still have not found my crock pot! How do you loose a crock pot! So my mom bought me a new one, which I picked out and LOVED!!! $30!!! The handle broke that night :( when we made dinner. So the hubby called the hotline and had them send me another. A new and improved model they said! It promptly arrived, with the same lid as the broken one! Just a bigger size. I am afraid to use it as the lid may break and the hubby will call and they will send me an even larger crock pot! I wished that I could send my new one to "Crock Pot Lady". She would know what to do with this beauty of a kitchen appliance!!!
All in all, I am sentimental. I would just like to use the one that my mom and I picked out together.
Ok, what is for dinner?
