After a busy weekend, it’s time for me to delve back into my daily routine. And what better way to start than with our Spring Cleaning Challenge? This week it’s time for us to clean out our pots and pans and one cupboard. Once you have completed the assignment, please leave a comment on this post to let me know and you will be entered another time into the wonderful giveaways.
I am going to just share one organizing thought with you today: Pot Rack.
All of my pots and pans fit under my oven in that handy, but somewhat tiresome drawer that most ovens have situated underneath them. The best I can do this week, is take out all of the pots and wash the drawer out (I noticed that some crumbs have fallen into it) and neatly stack my pots back up.
But in my dream kitchen, I would have more options.
A lot of professional kitchens will have utensils and pots and knifes all in easy to access spots.

And since a lot of my pots and pans came in a set, I found that I can hang 3 on the same hook and they will nest together.
