Clean Kitchen Tackle It Tuesday 4/8/2008

April8

Umm, ya’ll. I reclaimed my kitchen! My friend Ang. and I have determined to turn over several new leaves, and it started yesterday, with our weight control efforts and today with our houses. I reclaimed the kitchen that I had scrubbed in January. Clutter had encroached again. I moved the microwave to the other side, put the coffee pot back down on the counter so I can mop up from under it more easily and left an entire counter between the stove and sink clear for mixing and general food prep.

Now, I am short, so anytime I reach to do something, my belly rubs. Today, it rubbed against the counter and sink, LOL! It was worth it though, because I am actually happy thinking about getting back in there and cooking. I guess that was my tackle for today. Because, hey! It’s Tuesday. I did not take before pictures, but here are after shots :)

    Yay! Feels great, doesn’t it? I know I’m not doing this with y’all, but I’m in the midst of reclaiming my apartment. Well, maybe claiming it for the first time since I moved in two years ago. I reclaimed my bedroom… I’m hoping to get pictures up tonight.

    Way to go, Cass! The problem is now that it’s clean, you’re not going to want to cook and mess it up again. ;)

    Au contraire! If I took a picture now, you would see COOKIES in that jar on the microwave.

    Also, breakfast dishes on the other counter, LOL

I'm Cass. I am a full-time mom to eight great children, a Christian and a blogger. I'm also a knitter, a reader and a movie watcher. And a collector of eclectic oddities.

For the first time in 18 and a half years, I have my own little corner again. Somewhere along the way, I seem to have lost myself, and now that I realize I'm missing, I'm on the look out for me. You maybe don't know what that means, but then again, maybe you do. Regardless, this is where I'll be when I'm not being a mother or a knitter. This is where I'll be just me. And if no one ever reads it, that's ok. I'll know it's here.
