[@tamararobinson2069]

Being a minimalist & great cook don’t go hand-in-hand you need all those lovely flavors😊 That’s what the pantry near the kitchen is for. Lining those walls with all the stuff so you can see them is a perfect place. Cover your window in there to protect the integrity of the herbs & spices.

[@sandrajackson7929]

Great advice...the upstairs pantry would make great spice storage!

[@r.alanatrachtenberg5949]

On the door of your spice cabinet, you should keep a list of all the spices you have stored in the cabinet, possibly even the amount, so that you can keep track of what you have without having to actually sort through the cabinet. I find this to be a way to deal with the overwhelming amount of spices in a confined space, especially where things tend to get buried behind each other.

[@rgomoffat]

We keep list on inside of cabinets of what food, spices, and equipment was moved to where in the house.

[@patz2917]

I do the same. The list is so helpful in tracking the spice inventory.

[@KayBui-vo4eo]

I was going to just the same thing, as that is what I would do if I had them in a cupboard like that.

[@carolinerimmer1362]

That’s an awesome idea... instead of making a list - I’m going to make a pouch shelf 🤣

[@krisirolfe4332]

And label everything!!

[@elbertajohnson937]

Switch spices to small jars. Keep fresher. Move larger jars to bulk storage. Extra spices donate to soup kitchen

[@helgardhossain9038]

Exactly - I use spices which are 5 years old ... Dried food, food in salt/pickled foodstuff & food in sugar/honey cannot go off ...

[@victoriansunset]

Exactly! I got so upset when I saw her waste all those herbs. All I kept thinking was someone could have used those. 😢

[@missdaisymay07]

Hey, you have such a creative personality that sometimes getting and being messy just comes with the territory. It’s not a bad thing at all, it’s quite lovely to be so creative, it just means you’ll need to organize a litttle more often than other people . Being a minimalist, I don’t think, is within your personality. And if it’s not within you, it will make you feel like you’re failing more often than not. Keep being you my friend because you’re awesome ❤

[@magsstewart5488]

Note: Do not bother to put things (like beef gelatin) into smaller containers. Always keep it in the size container that will take a full refill. That way you will both realize when you’re running low and reserve the space to house a full amount of it. Use one container up completely, clean it before refilling.

You could also vacuum seal the jars that are going downstairs to stay fresher longer as well.

[@LB-vl3qn]

Those wooden lids on your mason jars looked so pretty on your kitchen shelf. I'll miss seeing them. Also, don't apologize for keeping the things you want to keep, even if it's multiple sets of the same thing. I have dozens of those tiny spatulas; I use them for everything. Minimalism isn't for everyone, despite what YT would have us believe. You need what you need in the quantity you need it. Every kitchen is different. Finally, Dana K White has some great strategies for decluttering that really help with the 'overwhelm' of it all. The kitchen looks great! ~ Lisa

[@JH-gq4xb]

Becky, I don’t know if you have ever read it but I just finished How To Keep a House While Drowning and it made me think of you and how you approach things. I have struggled with depression and chronic illness the past few years. I went from an active momma who baked her own bread, raised chickens/cows and sheep, gardens and everything to having times I couldn’t even get out of bed. I always loved and appreciated the way that you would speak to yourself while tackling big projects. While I always considered myself a pretty organized and clean person, I was always hard on myself whenever things fell to the wayside, and had never had an example of somebody who handled those things with such grace as you do. The book reminded me so much of of you and how thankful I am to have an example not only through the book but also of you on how to keep a home without being overwhelmed. Thank you!

[@donnabolt5847]

Just want to let you know you are not alone on this world. I was also very active strong healthy independent mom of 5 and now I am no longer. I have ms. And it's aggressive. Everyday I have to work so incredibly hard and it's not even 1/5th of what I used to do. As long as we are doing the best we can, we should be proud of ourselves. I try to remind myself if my kidd will remember our cleam home or thst I was on the couch, yes, but I snuggled up to them. The latter is more important to me. Keep on keeping on! And give yourself love on those days you can't function. ❤

[@AcreHomestead]

I haven't ever read that book but I will! Thanks for the recommendation and for sharing part of your story with me. I have struggled with anxiety and the struggle can be so real when dealing with mental health. I am honored my video can be an encouragement to you. thanks so much for being here and being a part of this. - Becky

[@heatherkennedy9973]

becky maybe instead of storing all your overflow herbs down stairs you could utilize the wall shelving space in your upstairs pantry-- since they are mainly in jars it would be easier for you to just grab what you ran out of--just a thought🙃

[@dawncampbell9385]

My thoughts exactly

[@christinatm]

I was thinking the same. And use the lazy Susan for bowls, strainers, etc. that’s what I do. I would never remember food things in there

[@christineupchurch3714]

@@christinatm I also find that larger items such as mixing bowls, colanders, and a salad spinner fill up the corner cabinet well and are easier to grab than the smaller items.

Also my mum has dementia and you are the only thing she is willing to watch on tv, so thank you for being YOU as you would say!

Take time to make a written inventory of your spices, print it out & tape to the inside of your cupboard door. Update as necessary. This helps me keep up with things. I keep an inventory for my chest freezer too.

[@lindat913]

Dry erase pads would be perfect for this!

[@kellif01]

I came to say the same thing. I have inventory sheets for everything. I now know how many of each thing is in my pantry or freezers. I can also access them more easily to see how low my stock is when I see an item that I use regularly is on sale.

Hi Becky! A random thought popped into my head the other day, I've been following you since 5K subscribers. I remember the first video I watched, you were chasing your dogs down the street at the old house. 😂 You were trying to get to work and they escaped.

[@buckonono7996]

I store all my herbs and spices in smaller jars in racks on the inside of my pantry door. I keep the extra in a cabinet in the long term storage and just refill the smaller jars as I use them up. I arrange everything alphabetically and it makes it so easy to find what I'm looking for. It's like free space!

[@diannerempel8262]

That was a good call to streamline your spices! My suggestion would be to add a frosted contact paper to the front of your bottom glass cupboards. Then you could use this for storing your muffin liners, sifter, bag holders etc, without it looking messy from the outside. That was a very productive day!

[@krisirolfe4332]

Love those drawers!!!

[@richardharris1183]

I would A: stick to your mason jars, they are bigger and you are a cook that goes through your herbs and spices. B: Put all your spices from that bottom corner cabinet lined up and in plain sight in your small walk in pantry and use that little corner cabinet only for like your reusable grocery bags…trash bags…cleaning supplies..because those corner cabinets are always a cluster and things get lost. Less really is more at times because too much you can’t find it to use it anyways. Good luck on your organization!

This is a DIY Oven Cleaner that I love. Works great on the racks too. DIY Oven Cleaner ¼ cup of dish soap ½ cup of lemon juice 1 cup of vinegar 1 ¼ cup of water Combine ingredients in a large spray bottle and shake gently to mix. Spray the solution in your stove (including on the inside of the door), then let it sit for a little while. Use a damp cloth to wipe off the solution, and your stove will look like a million bucks.

[@bernadineh7107]

rather that the continuous cycle of "decluttering" which clearly is not working 100% (this is not the first or last decluttering you'll do) perhaps you need to focus your efforts on the actions in the moment... thinking of your work flow & putting items away where they should be

With all of the herbs and spices that you have stored, I'm honestly surprised that you don't label anything. I stock and use so many different herbs and spices, and every single one is labeled, whether they are main kitchen spices or backup. This also helps if family or friends are helping in the kitchen and they can find whatever they need 😉

[@kewpiefan72]

First off, I LOVE your channel! I’m one of your first subs! You totally amaze me with the amount of work you get done! One of the reasons you can be that way is because you’re speedy. Since you’re always in a hurry, or being efficient as you put it, it’s easy to not stick with your organization. Being quicker drives you and enables you to get so much done, wish I was more like you. I’m waaaay too methodical! Every time you organize, you talk about being more of a minimalist with your spices. If I may suggest, since your spinning cabinet messes with your mind, don’t keep your spices and herbs in there! Maybe keep empty storage items in there or small appliances. You found so many spices and herbs in there you thought you were out of, you just don’t get in there and use that space because you don’t like it. So don’t put food in it. Kombucha is the exception, great idea!!! I love you being you! You go, girl!

This is a great video. Thank you 😊

[@sherlynpatterson4304]

With the way things are in today's economy I would suggest keeping all your spices until it's actually time to throw them away because they have actually expired. Keeping all your seasonings will help allow you to do more specialty videos as a type of food challenge, spice blend videos and how to use them. This is my fifth experience with an economic collapse and things will be real tough the next three years. It's time to squirrel away some things since a lot of spices are imported.

Becky you’re such an inspiration! I’m currently sitting with several feet of snow outside here in Idaho, so watching one of my favorite people makes my day 😀

[@nadinecarson3259]

Oh my gosh! I’m working on my kitchen organizational skills too! I’ve been watching your channel & now I’m cleaning/organizing my kitchen as well! Thank you Becky. I’ve learned so much from you! My husband is happier too! 🤣♥️

[@kyliemackrell6357]

Hi Becky love watching. I’m from Australia and we use golden syrup to make Anzac biscuit or Anzac slice. Anzac biscuits are an Aussie tradition around Anzac Day.

[@deborahludlow6483]

These sound delicious. Will have to try to make. Thanks for sharing.

[@shesatitagain234]

I LOVE ANZAC cookies! I make them as well and although the original recipe called for golden syrup, I sometimes substitute honey and they turn out equally delicious. Few people in the US know anything about ANZAC but I have a friends from New Zealand and I began making them when he told me how great they are.

Hope you are good and safe with the ice storm ♥️ Keep up the wonderful work!!!

This is such a great organization/cleaning video! It made ME feel less stressed 😂 I love your kitchen...your baking drawers are fabulous!

[@andreamorrison8419]

Hi Becky, I love the new streamlined cupboards and drawers. Looks very nice.

[@patlovato4073]

Thank uBecky for being real and human. Love watching and learning from u.❤️🙏

[@JAYNEmM1962]

You just inspire us. I clean airbnbs and still love watching organizational videos from u. I am planning a total reset when things slow down. Thank you Becky.

[@wendycecil7843]

The view outside your kitchen window is so beautiful! Thank you for sharing it with us.

Hi Becky, I’ve been thinking about how fun it’s been to watch your growth as a cook, a vlogger and recipe developer. I’ve been following you for about two years. One improvement on your channel is related to your new home, the light in your kitchen is really lovely and the videos look great. You also have so much space, which you are able to organize very well. But I see your development as a cook where you seem to be able to pivot if you don’t have an ingredient or if something doesn’t go according to plan. I also enjoy all the new recipes you try! You have always been skilled and inspiring. The channel is terrific, thank you!

Agreed. Well said. ~ Lisa

Becky, you are an absolute PRO at getting yourself back on track. Good for you! It's so hard for me, my monkey-mind goes 50 steps ahead of where I truly am, making almost every task seem harder than it is. Stopping yourself and reminding yourself to FOCUS is simple, but brilliant. 👏🏼 🙌🏼 👏🏼

[@ColleenH38]

Great job!!!! Everything looks so clean and organized.

[@jnk5740]

You inspire me, Becky! Thank you for being you!

[@haou132]

The same here, enjoying minimalism simplifying home journey with Dawn Cass and other inspiring beautiful ladies ! It feels sooo much better afterall!!! Thank you for showing in actions the procédure !!! Blessings over you and your family !!!

[@christineeckhold6341]

You'll love the corer for strawberries too. Thanks for another great video... appreciate how much effort it must take to put out lengthy videos every other day. ❤

[@shirleykinney3777]

Looks great.What a wonderful feeling!! The jars look so pretty on the shelf!!

[@victoriadavis8142]

I love how you had to stop and remind yourself to stay focused. I can relate to that so much! Great job and thanks for sharing!

[@normacooper6377]

It was definitely time.😳😉 I never, never, never put a jar in a cupboard nor my fridge without a lid because in my experience, that’s just a disaster waiting to happen. 🙄 Glad you got the chance to clean up & sort/clear out/consolidate your spice cupboards & kitchen drawers. Big improvement, I’m sure!

[@aliceagoddard7219]

Becky your awesome. You teach us so much. I also get busy and organization is the last thing on my mind and then do major clean outs. Never thought about using the shop vac!!!! Thanks for sharing.

[@marikajohn6522]

Love it when I see you sorting ,it makes me move. I also love it when all even unseen things are sorted. Yes we all hold to much so charity shop will have a big drop off. 😊😊

[@martielewiggins2885]

Hello Becky, I've been watching and enjoying your channel for several years now. I really enjoy and appreciate your homesteading ideas and practices. You surely inspire so many of us with your shopping ideas, cooking preparations & processes, gardening tips and your organization skills. I love watching and sharing your videos with my family and friends. I also caught a few glimpses of you at the Hollar Homestead channel during the hog processing video recently. I was surprised and happy to see you there. I love their channel as well. So please, keep your videos coming. All the best to you and your family. Martie W. from Florida...😊

[@lisag1540]

I beat you to it on this one, Becky! I've been systematically going through my kitchen cleaning out, throwing out, donating and reorganizing. I still have my baking supplies cabinet to do. Decided to wait on it until baking season was over so I could do some restocking as well. Oh, I made the most delicious white chicken lasagna this past weekend! Found the recipe on Natasha's YT site. Happy to share the link if anyone interested!

[@tammyr2966]

I would love this recipe!

[@ruthallen1159]

Me too!

[@AcreHomestead]

Oh wow I need to try that! I can google it! :) Thanks so much for the inspiration

[@lisag1540]

For some reason the link I posted isn't working. Go to Natasha's Kitchen and look for chicken recipes. It's in there. Let me know if you try it and what you and Josh think. FYI, I'm not a huge spinach fan so I chopped it up pretty small so I wouldn't taste it! 😂😂

[@lisag1540]

Oh, and I saved time because I can now use the chopped onions and minced garlic I keep in the freezer and the noodles came out great because I put them in cold water after they were cooked. All thanks to you, Becky!

[@ScottJack-ep9fv]

If you don't end up liking the vanilla powder for consumption, you can always use it as an air freshener or in a simmer pot

[@marygrott8095]

I'm working on decluttering also. You're correct in saying that it's overwhelming, but little by little, it gets done when we set out to do it!

[@cindycunningham5137]

Thanks for the kick I needed Becky. It's funny watching you organize makes me want to do the same!!!

[@DeAnn_Davies_1227]

I just threw away a basil plant that I had in my kitchen. It became infested with those pesky fungus gnats. I love how you arranged your deep drawers to store baking supplies in your baking area. I also have deep drawers and am definitely going to get new storage containers that fit in my drawers. Thanks for the idea!

[@NaomiC336]

I love your videos and the minimal mom. I’m not a minimalist but she gave me courage to donate stuff not being used.

[@dianedohman1807]

I am overwhelmed and so kudos to you for tackling this .

[@debrakessler5141]

Becky there is a new solution for the lazy Susan corner cabinet. It would be well worth the investment. It consists of two separate drawer systems that slide out so you don't uave to get down there and reach in there. I think it's called a vlind corner cabinet.
