Best Ways to Organize Your Kitchen     • Take inventory. Pull
all items out of the cupboards and place on a large table. Put
things into groups, creating a loose hierarchy based on how
often you use the pieces.   • Donate or toss. Evaluate each
item. If you have three frying pans of the same size, donate
one, along with anything you haven’t used in a couple of years.
Discard anything that’s broken and can’t be repaired or is
missing parts, like a pot without a handle.   • Create zones.
When putting back items, place those used for cooking and food
preparation in cabinets near the stove and work surfaces; those
for eating should be closer to the sink, refrigerator, and
dishwasher. View The Entire Checklist
