Kitchen

 Instead of one long blog post I am doing three!!

Today's steady job has been sorting the kitchen....apart from going for a walk before getting the jags (flu and COVID) at the village community room.

So here is the evidence!!


Step one....with encouragement via WhatsApp with my daughter!!


Most of the whisky boxes folded and in the box...now with packing materials upstairs. 

I'm keeping the kettle up there to use on the workshop stove.

The Highdome pressure cookers just need the safety valve, then I can bottle fruit instead of freezing it all. Unfortunately when Prestige changed hands, that valve changed shape and dimensions...I have a new rubber gasket , but no use without the valve. The ones I bought purporting to be the old style, weren't.   I think I will hang fire on that. A new stainless steel one costs £45-£60...and if I can find a second hand one....


The other corner has been done, I'm happy with that...drinks corner!

Plastic storage boxes sorted and all the odd boxes and lids are in the recycling bucket.  Just the baking shelves to do now....how many tins and trays do I keep?!


Yes, Tom....thanks for the nudge! Now I have to keep rolling, room by room. 

It will get easier when I've sold the bikes that I don't need.

WHOA!!! Look at you go!!!! Somebody lit yer skirt on fire? Good job though. I am impressed!

Something that I was going to ask you...do they have pot hangers there? Those are useful for clearing up counter clutter and making room in cupboards. They hang from the ceiling like so: https://www.wayfair.com/kitchen-tabletop/pdp/17-stories-hanging-pot-rack-w100423931.html?piid=620778137

You can store the lids a top, and perhaps that will free up a cabinet for you?

Oh, don't you hate it when they change owners or whatever and the parts you need are no longer available. Been there. Hated it!

That is something to think of....
