Organized Kitchen

Prompt: How do you keep your kitchen organized?

I have granite blue kitchen counters and etched window cabinets and oak wood cabinets. I have navy blue panels by my kitchen sink.

I keep my toaster, Crock Pot, can opener and mini cupcake maker in the cupboard. I have my dish drainer by the sink. I do keep my electric skillet on the counter. I have a Rudolph Cookie Jar on the kitchen counter that stays out all year along with my white cat cookie jar and kitten salt and pepper shakers that match.

I have an owl candle warmer and crystal, glass basket I keep my candle wax melts in. My dishwasher, stove and refrigerator are all together. I keep paper towels on the kitchen counter. I never know when I will need them. I have a paper pad on my refrigerator so I can keep track of what I run out and need at the grocery store. I have tons of refrigerator magnets: Jackie Kennedy, Toto the dog, Halloween ones, Star trek, Nascar, Elven Prince Of Lord Of The Rings, Dog ones, lamb, One from the falls of Oregon, a steam boat and I do enjoy my magnets.

I have my pots and pans, baking dishes in the bottom cabinet. I have my plates, glasses and mugs in my etched cupboard and everything has it's place. I have my Christmas plates in my cupboard underneath the microwave.

I do have a few hot pads I keep on the counter. My microwave sits in a cabinet and I have a cupboard over head and one at the bottom. I have a wolf towel, with a crocheted top that hangs on my cupboard door.

I have blue willow pattern decorations of a peacock, vases, rabbit and owl I keep above my cabinets. I also keep flowers {not real} in vases above my kitchen cabinets.

So, this is my friendly kitchen. It is small but I am not a gourmet cook. I just do my best.
