It is also the place, at least in my house, where clutter tends to gravitate. It can get pretty messy pretty fast. Doesn&#8217;t it seem that when your kitchen is neat and clean, the rest of the house appears to be too? Don&#8217;t you feel better and more relaxed when your kitchen is in order?<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<table align=\"center\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-2ead3wDV7zs\/T9AJ2TwVXEI\/AAAAAAAAGD0\/TwcvQsVHN74\/s1600\/IMG_8755.JPG\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" height=\"300\" src=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-2ead3wDV7zs\/T9AJ2TwVXEI\/AAAAAAAAGD0\/TwcvQsVHN74\/s400\/IMG_8755.JPG\" width=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #351c75;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span style=\"color: #20124d;\"><span style=\"font-size: x-large;\">This Week&#8217;s Goals:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #351c75;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span style=\"color: #20124d;\"><span style=\"font-size: x-large;\"><span style=\"color: #351c75;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">1. Clear your kitchen of anything that does not involve cooking, baking, food prep, serving food, etc. Put all coats, backpacks, toys, sports stuff, etc in another place or put it away. If it is too overwhelming to put away right now, put it in a holding place like the garage until we get to it to organize later. Take out things you hardly ever use or seasonal items too. Go back to the basics! Less is more.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #351c75;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span style=\"color: #20124d;\"><span style=\"font-size: x-large;\"><span style=\"color: #351c75;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">2. Put away appliances that you don&#8217;t use daily. The only appliance I have out is my toaster. I am having a hard time deciding if I should store this in a cabinet or keep it on the counter.

Clear the counters of all paperwork, magazines, mail, etc. Keep one &#8220;in-box&#8221; area to receive mail and process it at least weekly. We keep a basket on top of the refrigerator. My husband goes through it on Sunday nights when he pays bills. He recycles the junk mail, pays bills and files them away.
