\"\"Is your pantry ready for the holidays?

Are you as excited as I am that the holidays are almost here?? ? I know it’s not even Halloween yet, but now is the perfect time to begin thinking about holiday family get-togethers and parties you may host. And the one area of the kitchen that is most neglected is the Pantry. Am I right? Bulk food is bought and never used, snacks are bought and thrown in haphazardly, and it’s almost impossible to find what you’re actually looking for, so you go out and buy more! I really like this article on Pantry Organization, and it includes some products that will make organizing your pantry easier. Call me if you need help!
