Holiday Preparedness

As the Holiday Season is quickly approaching, I find myself looking to organize my pantry. Here are the steps that I follow in order to be prepared ahead of time:

1. Gather the recipes that you intend on using through out the season. Remember to check your calendar for those events you my have already forgotten about.

2. Make a listing of items that are needed for your recipes.

3. Check your pantry - throw out expired or unusable items.

4. Check your pantry against the list you made and write up the purchases needed.

5. (optional)  This is not optional for me as I am always looking for ways to save. Check for coupons and sales for the items you need.

6. Purchase the items you need.

7. Lets not forget to put those pantry items away in an organized fashion.  We want to be able to find what we need.

Here are my favorite containers for Flour & Sugar.Bag in Sugar Dispenser (Clear) (10"H x 9"W x 5"D)
