Behold Its Beauty
Posted on March 5th, 2008 by Jennifer

This is my glorious pantry…organized, neat, unblemished by dirty fingers and laziness.
I know it won’t last, the newness of just having unpacked will fade. I just wanted to capture it, this fleeting beauty, before it all goes to Hell.















Awww! And look - Ovaltine has pride of place, too
I can hear the tiny choir of angels all the way here in Texas. I love having an organized pantry. There is something so cool about seeing all the tiny little jars and boxes all lined up in their rows sorted by cereal, veggies, meat, etc.

Oh pretty! Organized things (and organizing) give me a sick amount of joy. I seriously need help. But I do love that pantry! And, like Annie, I did notice that Ovaltine was front and center!

my tiny little jars do not look that nice. I don’t think you would want to be my friend if you saw my pantry…

My pantry looked like that once. About 3 years ago for a day when my mother organized it. It is not a pretty picture now.
Toni’s last blog post..Chillin’
Wow. Wish mine looked like that.
Sandy’s last blog post..OMG When will it end??
I love the newness of unpacking, it’s like starting all over again with a clean organized slate. Of course it all goes to hell in a week but what can you say?

I cleaned mine out at Christmas time. It already looks like I haven’t organized it in a year! Ugh.

I’m jealous mine will never again look like that now that two little boys live with me and know where the pantry is.

That is just beautiful…brings tears to my eyes.
You should look into pull out shelves. Our pantry is like yours and I have 3 pull out shelves (don’t ask me why I didn’t do the 4th…brain must have been gone that day!) and they are wonderful! You can see all the way to the back. If your husband is handy he might be able to do it himself. Mine says he can put the last one it but I have yet to see him do it.

Mrs. Mustard’s last blog post..At the whim of a benevolent dictator
Suddenly I find myself reminded of that Julie Roberts movie when she opens her cabinet to find freakishly organized canned goods.
Now I think I may need therapy for coveting such organized canned goods.
