It’s Master Bedroom Week. I have tidy drawers. But I also had to get rid of a lot of things. Why do I still have size 20 clothes in my bedroom when I’m a size 8?
I also sorted my jewelry into a new case, just like the one I saw on The Home Edit. I am being influenced more than expected by those girls.
I also did some work in the pantry.
The Home Edit girls are right about pumpkin puree. My can of pumpkin was indeed outdated. So were several other cans and packages. I was shocked. But now the pantry is once again a thing of beauty.
Ahem. The three shelves I take care of are a thing of beauty.
Unfortunately, there is more to the pantry than that.
More work must be done. Probably during Pantry Week.
Also, we have these tasks to do:
HOLIDAY PREP
- Make one batch of Holiday Goodies. I’m planning to make financiers.
- Make one extra meal for freezer again labeled HOLIDAY MEAL. I didn’t get to this last week, and I might need to clean out the freezer before I get started on this.
- Buy two canned food items from menus (get 2 of each item, one to use and one to donate to food drive). Actually, I might not have any more canned goods on my shopping list. Not that big on canned goods.
- Buy 1/8th of TO BUY gifts. Save all receipts, note return policy before buying. Ask for gift boxes. I bought Waldorf dolls for the littles.
- Wrap and label packages. If needing to ship, get some shipping boxes now and store packages in them.
- Work at least 1 hour a day on homemade gifts. Getting started!
- Make list of any table and bathroom linens that need replacing before the holidays, and pick up a few each week. I’m good on linens.
