Even with a larger kitchen, I am still at a loss for where to put everything. Another thing that's being lost in the showcase kitchens nobody ever cooks in -- the practical touches like adequate storage for (*gasp*) food.

One way I ensured that others would be able to understand my organization is that I put labels on the shelves! I recently moved into a new pantry - part of a (still ongoing) kitchen remodel.

Hence the racks and whatnot. The over the door thingie is great--I am going to install another one lower down--these drill into the door itself, and don't hang over the door, so you can attach as many racks as your door is tall. Rosie--Indira has a way of making us all brave, doesn't she? I am lucky in that not only do I have the room for the twenty-five pound bag of rice, but now that Morganna is living with us, that bag of rice goes faster than it did when eaten by just two people. Well, that and all the friends who drop by at dinner time...they help, too. Gustad--that is a great idea for a blog title! If you take it up, let me know! Shirley--Thanks! I think it looks plenty spiffy now, and I am happy for it. I really don't like cooking in a disorganized space. I was like that before, but culinary school really beat that out of me. Now disorder and chaos in the pantry really unsettles me. Jenn–Yes, global cooking necessitates the purchase of lots of global ingredients, which then necessitates storage solutions.

I like those hanging baskets you have over the doors. The hot and humid weather here keeps me from buying many, many things that I would only use once in a long, long while, and which means I need a lot of fridge space. So, I've been kind of an armchair cook, thinking of the day that I could open my fridge and cupboard and have everything right there, fresh and fragrant as they can be. Yeah...keep dreaming...
