Paring down
The past two months have been crazy. I’m selling my house, and this meant gutting it, fixing it up, making it look pretty, and then keeping it that way. I’m ten different kinds of tired.
It’s been an interesting excercise on many levels, though, and one I’m ultimately grateful to have gone through. As I’ve packed things away, I’ve had to spend a lot of time considering what’s ‘essential’, what’s merely nice to have, and what’s just plain junk that needs to leave…permanently. The kitchen did not escape this process unscathed, and an interesting post today on Unclutterer made me decide to write something similar — my own list of kitchen essentials.
