A little hack for the zest if anyone is interested….it freezes very well so I get a bunch of orange and lemon and zest it all and keep it in a mason jar in the freezer. Then I use the rest of of the fruit for juicing. I also freeze the juice in ice cube trays to use later. It is very convenient to already have that in the freezer and doesn’t seem to lose any of its flavor being frozen.
Similarly I freeze left over wine in ice cubes and freeze fresh herbs in some olive oil in ice cubes, both really useful kitchen tips.
Thank you both for the tips!
I make herb butter that I freeze. :) very good on steaks or bread
love this hack ty
V johnson, what is leftover wine? Lol
The closet would be a perfect spot for the hamper you wanted for your dish towels.
You could hang a small one on the inside of the door with a command hook.
@@kaleigh4081 or one of those over the back of the door ones? We're here for ya Becky!
Little Acre is going to have a wonderful vocabulary because he is hearing adult conversation on a daily basis. Many parents don’t expose them to adults conversing. He is already learning!
My parents always spoke to us like we were adults. My mum hated babytalk and wouldn't let anyone else use it to us either. Seemed to work :-).
Very good point!!
Can you all remember when Becky was out that first year in her garden trying to document and figure it out. Now look at her! So impressed with you. Thanks for not giving up Becky.
Yes!!! So so so inspirational
If you put a bar in the closet, hang it further back. Then you could push the shoe rack back giving you more room to get to the dog shelf and the hanging broom/mop. A bar will give you space to hang coats from your visitors. You will also need more room for coats now that your family has grown.
I would the bar in for the coats and put the command hooks on the inside of the door to hang the mop and broom on the door.
Could probably use a tension rod to try it out. Figure out how far back and how high up would be the most optimal for the both of them and if it all works out, they can get an actual bar installed.
Agree, i feel like that will function really well. And they can use the space behind the hanging coats for storage of less often used items.
Julie, that is a great idea. You are so right.
That's what I thought too!
When I need to buy something my husband always says "Don't cheap out!". I hate to spend money but have found joy in spending just enough money to get the job done right rather than just okay!
It is so good to see how much bigger that little baby A bundle has gotten to be in the last few weeks as you do the kitchen chores. I don't feel I need to see his little face and know all about him to take joy in his healthy growth. Bless you all!
Anyone else feel a feeling of just calm and happiness when you see that Becky has posted a new video?!
One of my favorite Becky sayings is, "This is real life." Reminds me that yes, things get messy, and that's perfectly fine, so get to it when you can but don't punish yourself if you don't have the bandwidth for a while. I'm learning so much from you, Becky!
I totally agree!
I've had a difficult day today because all the seeds I'd spent ages saving last year have been destroyed by a mouse so I'm so glad I can watch this and feel a bit more positive ❤
I’m so sorry! 😢
That’s terrible 😢I am sorry this happened to you.
There is a photo organizer on Amazon that is perfect for storing seeds!! If you just type “photo organizer” in the search bar they should pop up 😊
😳😪 so frustrating! 🙏🙏
Oh no! I'm so sorry 😞
Bless your heart!! I know that is so frustrating after all your work!
When my children were small, I picked out a lower cabinet and put some plastic bowls and wooden spoons for them to get out and play with. It kept them from getting into the other cabinets so much. Time flies, yours will be doing that soon!
When my baby girl (16th birthday today!) was crawling and toddling we were in a house with an absolute TON of kitchen cabinets. The one under the coffee station just had some soft lunch totes in it and my daughter would pull them out and get in the cabinet to play. I actually have a picture of her in the cabinet lol
Yes! My little daughter in law does this with her two little girls. They know that that's the cabinet that they're allowed to play in, and they LOVE it!!
I just played in our Tupperware cabinet with my 7 month old grandson last night, such a great idea!!
I like clear countertops too...if I had the space in my kitchen, I would have nothing on them...
I did that, too! They loved to pretend cook while I was cooking.
I love this family. They remind me of the families in the 50s.
FWIW cupcake liners store perfectly in wide mouth canning jars.
My kids started crawling and getting into cabinets around 5/6 months, so you might need to reconsider some of your organization the next few months and start thinking about what sort of cabinet locks etc you'll want. My youngest is 2 and the bread blade in the drawer freaked me out a little 😅
I don't know why, but I always feel like Becky is going to catch her fingers in those big, heavy, and awesome drawers - they run so smoothly. Great idea to protect the little one's fingers too.
If you make potato soup, don't use the canned potaoes... they will keep. Use the fresh potaoes because they will go bad sooner.
Good organizing👌 Since you asked what we thought about the cupboard... ;-) I would definately not have blocked the entrance of it with the shoe rack... I would have pushed it either all the way to the back, or at least halfway in there, so that Josh would access his coats more easily, and you wouldn't have to stretch over it to get the brooms. I see that it's more likely that your shoes might get kicked off in front of it in stead of putten into it if you push it further back. But that's just a matter of self discipline ;-) You could still have the coats hanging across the room on a rod, btw. Good luck, however you choose to organize your home. It's inspiring and fun to watch anyway :-)))
I am incredibly lucky in that my husband loads the dishwasher and I unload it. That way I (the cook) know where all the things are when I'm trying to cook and he doesn't get yelled at for putting things in the wrong place :)
Turn your dutch oven lid upside down and it will fit into that drawer without hitting the frame!
place some parchment paper in the bottom of the flour drawer and a little up the sides. That way when it gets messy you can just take out the paper, shake the contents into the garbage and put it back. Easy way to keep the drawer clean
I hung a small white board in my pantry and write down anything thats empty and needs refilling that way I dont have to check in each container. Hope this is helpful. Loved the motivation!💚
Pam here….when we had an attached garage that was huge….I put all the everyday coats and shoes and boots out there with the ‘house slippers’ to put on to keep from tracking in dirt and stuff from yard. I would keep garden clogs or boots by your patio door that leads outside from basement too. Keep your broom closet for your cleaning stuff, extra paper goods, TP, garbage bags, have a pullout garbage can for huge process days in there? The back wall could have shelves. It is something that can keep unsafe stuff away from a toddler. Smile!
Dadgummit. Everytime i watch an episode, i really want to go bake something. But my waistline can't handle it at this point. I'm the only person in my house that eats baked yummy treats.
Your videos are as reliable as old faithful. Thank you for the consistent content. I’m sure it takes a ton of effort to keep the videos coming every other day. 💗
Becky, I don't think I have ever told you how much I love your kitchen. If we were ever able to buy another house or build a dream home I would want the measurements of your kitchen and especially your kitchen island. Since I am70 years old it's probably not going to happen. I can have wishes and dreams until my Good Lord takes me home.
Bless you, Becky for being such a sweet wonderful person. I love your videos and make sure to click on your videos as soon as I see you have put one up.
I don’t even have a kitchen lol
N see none in my future even at 58
Maranatha Messiah!
We are currently building our home, it’s NOT going to be huge, but I knew I wanted an Island…& I am copying the Baking Drawer’s. They just seem so efficient!
I love that big kitchen window.
Becky, I have a suggestion for your drawers that have the glass fronts where your baking goods are located: cover the glass with some type of paper, contact paper or something that you like the color of or that is simple and blends with the drawer so that you cannot see inside the drawer. Then you could use that small front space for the small jars, etc. Just a thought. You may already use that area, but it would drive me nuts that you could see what is in the drawer since it has a glass front.
I would keep my pot holders in those spaces.
I always tell my husband if he wants the cupboard straightened up, more power to him and he can do it lol. You do alot girl.
Exactly!! “He’s helping” so what are u doing, are u helping too😒
Could you push the shoe rack to the back of the closet? It will make accessing the coats and the broom etc much easier
It might be a hazard for their heads though....
Ya it doesn’t really make sense to have it at the front, huge waste of space and it going to make grading the broom and mop annoying
Put the coat bar just behind the broom and mop "hooky things" . But it is great the way it is!! You could alternatively put a few more hooks on the back of the door for company. I'd place the bench back a foot (so you can step in a little if you want. and swap the broom and mop. Broom is used more. Put a lidded trunk and shelf on back wall. (gloves and hats in baskets)
Blocking your closet entrance with the shoe rack is terrible fung shui, which does affect the 'feel' of a space, which is why there are so many comments about it. Plus it just looks odd and not user friendly. But as always...your house, your choice.
I feel Josh’s pain. My husband will stuff things anywhere to not look at them and while he knows the sweet potatoes don’t belong in the towel drawer if that’s the first hideaway he thought of he’d surely stuff them there. Drives me nuts, I’d rather look at a mess until I’m prepared to put it away right. Not him. He doesn’t clean the kitchen usually but when he tidies everything goes in a corner or stuffed into a closet I just organized messing it all up again. You could say if I kept the things tidy myself I wouldn’t have to play hide and seek but where’s the fun and aggravation in that? 🤣
You are so productive Becky I certainly wish I was
😂😂😂😂😂
🤣😆🤣 Right, no fun at all.
Ugh mine does this too. Makes me pull my hair out esp when he tries to "help" with the laundry. Smh
I am the same way. I can not stand having things shoved in places. I have zero hidden junk nooks in my house. If my house is a mess, then it is a mess. I will look at it until I can not take it anymore and finally deal with it, but until then, it doesn't get shoved out of sight. So what you see is what you get. Anyone can walk into my house at any time and open a drawer, cabinet, closet, etc, and they are all organized. There may be a large pile of dirty dishes just hanging out or jars and papers on the counter, but those hidden spaces are never a mess. My man, on the other hand... 🤦🏻♀️
Id put my favorite cookbooks in the front of those drawers
Becky, not sure you realise but keeping the lid off your bottle of vanilla extract means it evaporates little by little. It makes my heart happy to be organised at home. I’m with Josh - if it takes a small amount of money to make a task easier, simpler or less stressful then I’m all in.
The bottle has a lid that locks down when not in use..
@@AB-ol5uz I know but it’s generally not on the bottle.
I must also add, I was surprised you didn't use the pull out tray under your glass oven dishes for your dutch ovens. I would have thought that more spacious and convenient being close to the stove top.
I would put the coats on the left because that side is recessed, and hang the brooms on the right because you have more height to accommodate the brooms, and put the shoe rack out of the way on on the back wall.
Hi Becky, thanks for the video today. I think the word you are looking for the type of recipe these breads are is “quick breads”. This is what the section would be labeled in a cookbook. Quick due to no yeast in them.
Tip for zesting: hold the orange/lemon/lime then turn the file upside down and pull it across the peel. You can see the peel better and can get more of it without having to lift the fruit and see that you are not getting the pith.
Cheers
The BEST tip you gave me was treat yourself to WIDE mouth containers for the foods you use measuring cups in. Just did this and it’s so nice. I’m in my 50’s and always had the cute little glass jars and always struggled when I baked. Thank you
It brings me such joy seeing those baby feet sticking out from your carrier. Precious
Put the coat bar further back so you can still use the shelf for dog stuff, an yourour shoe rack. The clips you got for the brooms are $1.25 at dollar tree for 2 clips on one. Also Tupperware drawer get a peg board an pegs so they can stay more organized lay peg board in bottom of drawer an use pegs to size the Tupperware so they stay in place an each has a place.
Your tomato slicer will cut anything that fits in it. Tomatoes, cold cooked potatoes, eggs, pastry, fridge biscuits. If you confine it to one use you will quickly lose interest. Cakes looks yummy xx
I love to deep clean at least once a year and its the entire house. My grandma told me in her young years and even after she married my grandpa she still did this and so does my mom.
You are so blessed to have your large dream home while you are young and need the space! It's fun to watch you organize and get thing the way you want them!!!
My kitchen is the size of a postage stamp.... your kitchen makes me a bit envious!
My grandma lined 2 of her deep kitchen drawers with staninless steel (or it was a stainless steel insert) and then just dumped her flour and sugar right in the drawer. It is one of my fondest memories of her kitchen from when I was a child.
Almond extract is also great in the cranberry bread
You mentioned the pretty flakes being a benefit of zesting the orange so in case you didn't know - orange zest will give that cake WAY more orange flavor than the juice! If you hadn't zested that orange I think you would have barely tasted the orange flavor, zest packs a big punch! (and is also very pretty haha). When it comes to citrus juices lemon and lime lend a lot more flavor than orange, though their zests are also stronger than their juices!
I just did this with my bathroom cupboard. I've been putting it off for AGES. But one day, I just felt the urge, and I went and purged! Two boxes of random shampoos, soap, samples, etc. and I put them on my front porch. I did a first come first served on mktplc and they were gone so quickly!! My latest thing is to put one item a day on there for free. People will take anything that's free!
Great idea!
One of my jobs during my career involved traveling at least once a month. I would collect the free shampoos, etc from hotels and bring them home. When I had a ziploc bagful, I took them to a homeless shelter for the guests there. It’s the perfect size for those folks. I know they appreciated having the supplies.
Hi Becky I would suggest switching walls & moving the coats to the other wall under the shelf, that will allow you to have the shoe rack directly under your coats long ways & still have space to walk trough incase you needed to store items in the back. Hope this helps!
The craziest thing is when you said, "5 & 1/2 months!" It seems like it has been sooo much longer than that! The amount of things you have been able to accomplish in that short amount of time is astounding! I just finally put up the things in a moving box, a week ago, that had been sitting in a corner of our room since we moved into our house...almost 3 years ago!🤣
Becky, a much easier and faster way to grate that orange rind is to put the microplane grate on TOP of the fruit. All the grated peel sits inside it and you just flip it over and tap it to release the rind into the bowl. That way you can also see the spots you missed, too. Have a huge number of towels in a deep drawer, too, I buy them by the dozen and use them for EVERYTHING...except drying dishes! I let those air dry. The back of that closet door is a great spot to hang the mop and broom.
In your coat closet. You could use a tension rod for when you have company over to hang their coats. And take it down. When not in use.🙂
Why would you want the shoe rack blocking the doorway? Push it towards the back of the closet. And a definite yes to hanging a pole across the back instead of using the hooks to hang coats. Oh and clean up the underside of the shoe rack. It had cobwebs & leaves stuck underneath it. Nice coat closet!
Hi Becky. I realized that I live close to you so I’m going to pay close attention and follow your lead for the garden. This is my 4th summer here and the last 2 growing seasons were interrupted by family emergencies. I’ve been very successful at tomatoes but less in other vegetables so really hoping to take some good tips from you to have a successful little back yard garden this year. Thank you for sharing your kitchen and garden with us.
I waited all morning for you to arrive. Now I got dressed, had lunch and settled in to my recliner with my beverage to enjoy todays blog!!
I am 51 years old and you add ingredients like I do and I love it. If you don't have something or you're low on something and don't want to use it up then use an alternative. Love watching your videos.
Keep your go-to yeast in the fridge and your extra in the freezer! 😊
I think your little sun room would make do for a greenhouse til you get yours set up. Put a couple of your tables out there natural light by day grow lights by evening then off over night
Consider doing these kitchen resets as pre and post harvest and holiday prep. Also think about the rest of the house as resets between mostly inside to mostly outside. Being in the Puget Sound, the post holiday kitchen rest precedes the rest of the house transition between inside/cold weather into outside/ warm weather time which leads into pre harvest reset. Then you have the post harvest reset playing leap frog with it's getting cold reset and the year ends with prep for the holidays. It averages out to tackling a reset about every two months.
That’s a good idea. I wish I was that organized.
I’d go pre holidays and pre planting. So October and March. For me.
Becky you are doing awesome.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💙💚🥰🤗
@@madgevanness4011 In the midwest we do 'spring and fall' cleaning...which lines up with post gardening/preservation and just before gardening season. My guess is each region of the country calls it something different, but it all means the same thing. I love seeing her wear the baby!
I think the clothes rod in the closet makes sense to hold more coats. For some reason the shoe rack across the front is setting off my OCD. I would have to put it along the right hand wall under the coats and add my vacuum cleaner in here as well as your kitchen laundty hamper.
I think you should put the shoe rack a bit back a little so you can get the dustpan out and not go over your shoes. It looks amazing. I like how you organized the doors and cupboards also.
5:33 fresh zest makes all the difference :) -Cara
Put a light in that cupboard Becky, a battery one would be good, or Paint it white. Xxx
Thank you for taking the time out of your day to make these videos for us
A hack for your flour drawers - I line all my drawers with a towel so you can just lift out of drawer & shake into sink.
Hey Becky!
If you keep the yeast in the fridge instead of room temp, it will last for months and months! You’ll never have to test if your yeast is alive!
I also have never had any issues with condensation, etc.
But if you put it in a mason jar in the freezer it will last for years...I have some that is 11 years old and never had a problem with it yet 😊
I also keep a jar in the fridge and have never had a problem!
I love ther spring cleaning of the kitchen. Made me realize I have to clean mine. Thanks Becky.
For the closet, put a tension rod back a little. Maybe on the other side of the doggie treats going across. You can then use a little more of the room in the back that's just open space.
What a great space you have in your kitchen and pantry.
Hey when you open containers it might be better to place the lid top side down so that you don't accidently contaminate what's inside the containers when you put the lids back on.
If I organize things, I can’t find them the next time I want to use them! That’s my story, and I’m sticking to it😅
Turn the shoe rack sideways under the coats or put in garage as you enter. . This would leave the space open for better use as a hamper for dish towels .
Hi Becky. Have you considered lining your drawers with liners?
It not only protects your drawers but it’s so much more easier to clean.
I was looking at your beautiful kitchen and you have given me several ideas that will help me in my kitchen. I love the post it notes you keep in your drawer for quick reminders. I always walk away to get a pen and paper and forget what I need it to write?? I also like the ideas of having a back up kitchen to get your flour, sugar, oaks and etc in your closet or basement. So much to do…however, great ideas! Thank you Becky 👍🏼😉💕
I noticed the lovely sunshine that comes in through the window in your pantry closet, but I was wondering if that could affect the jarred items that the sun is shining directly on? Because you asked for suggestions, how about putting the command hooks for the broom and mop on the back of the door, this way you can have room to install the rod across the closet, giving you more access to hang more coats.
We love those Command broom holders! We placed them in the hall closet closest to our kitchen for ease of use, too. Just a tip - if you place a small mat (like a woven welcome mat type) under the shoe rack, it will help keep dust and fuzzies from outside that door from getting kicked under the door (doggies, I'm looking at you!) and the mat will catch miscellaneous debris. Easy to slide the mat from under the shoe rack, shake it outside and replace it under the shoes. Also, a few coat hooks along the slanted back wall of the closet/cupboard under the stairs could be used for other (lightweight) coats or hats.
If you put the coats on the door or the mops and dog stuff on the door you could put the shoe bench in sideways and have more access to the rest of the closet. I really enjoy hanging stuff on the back of the door, easy access and makes use of otherwise unused space. I use sturdy over the door hangers for coats, reusable bags, backpacks, etc.
Becky what about the down stairs/side of the house kitchen utility space for the grow station?. You showed us when you were giving the house tour. I remember you mentioning using it as a possible prep kitchen. This way it would keep the mess of the plants out of the main house. Just a thought.
Hi Becky!!! I don’t know if you will ever see this but today my anxiety was at a high and I’ve stayed busy to keep my mind busy and then I seen you had a new video! It helps my anxiety my so much! You inspired me to grow a garden last year and I did! it went so well! This year I’ve already started writing things down on what worked and what didn’t! Thank you for being honest and wonderful! ❤
Prayers for you Jenel, anxiety is terrible!
Great timing 😊 I just got a custard pie in the oven and it’s time to clean up!
Use the last hook for the shop broom!
agree with Julie and comments..move a rod to back across closet shoe stand under it, can stack extra things behind and out of sight if needed..that stand in front of closet and all wasted space behind it bothers my visual sense lol .... do luv the baking drawers and if I ever redid my kitchen would def put drawers in the island instead of cupboard
If that closet is one of the worse places in your house then you're doing beyond fantastic
When I reorganize my cupboards I use post it notes on the doors to tell me where things are until I can reflexively reach for what I want.
Works for me ! Use pictures if you have kids or dislexia (can't spell it today🙃🤫) or seniors in the house.
I start each day with a fresh dishcloth, dish towel, and hand towel and add extra dish towels as needed.
Turn the pot lid upsidedown within the pot to make a more streamlined fit.
Just found your channel. Love it. I caught video where you said could eat salad for breakfast.... so can I. I thought I was the only one. Congratulations on the new little bundle.
I am so glad to see someone on CZcams using Rumford Baking Powder. Most Baking Powder has aluminum sulfate in their ingredients. Rumford does not have aluminum sulfate as an ingredient.
I would think there would be more without aluminum sulfate but I have not found them. Rumford even has a version with less salt.
Walmart and other stores don't sell it and I have tried to get them to order it since they have added a healthier product line. Every store should, in my opinion, offer both.
Becky, I just love how you say “this is real life”! So true and very relatable!
Oh my goodness, how do you do it! I think that is the answer, you JUST DO IT! I admire you!
I think a rail to hang coats across the back of the cupboard would be a good use of the space since the ceiling slopes
We’ll now I’m organizing my kitchen, wasn’t planning on doing it today but after watching you Becky & how much you got done before noon’thirty, I should get it done before bedtime lol, at 64 that’s doing really good. Thank you for your video kicking my butt! ❤️
Love your cranberry recipes lately. I wish I had all your drawers and cupboards. I have a small kitchen and my overflow goes in my basement. Yeck! Moving soon and paring down to my basic necessities.
Hi Becky, after I saw how you put measuring cups in your flour, sugar, etc containers I’ve started doing that too. And you’re right, saves time when you’re baking & eliminates washing it out for each ingredient. Also, regarding your newly organized closet. If you don’t want to put holes in the wall, just get a tension shower curtain rod, put it towards the back of the closet, to hang your coats on. That’ll make the closet more open to reach what you need & you could move the shoe rack under the jackets.
Our saying goes "It's all about the tool" Meaning whatever tool or gadget makes things more effecient or easier !! Nice organization. We have been in our home 7 months and still not as organized. My seeds are all started now combatting spider mites that I just ordered Neem Oil from Amazon to get delivered this afternoon. Of course our growing season is earlier than Y'alls. We also just ordered a portable greenhouse for our plantings to harden them off before we plant in our garden that we are also working and putting together.
I have been a home baker for 55 years. I started when I was a teenager baking fancy cakes. I have a hard time believing your baked goods come out correctly. Using avocado oil changes taste and texture. I always measure exactly and use all the ingredients listed. Everyone is different and that's what males life interesting. Always like watching your videos. Thank you.
It’s an egg slicer too , it’s great to have stuff where’s its most useful
Also cheese and strawberry slicer
And mushroom slicer!
@@kaleigh4081 ooo hadn’t thought of that must give it a go lol
You could put decorated craft paper on the inside glass of your baking drawers. I love your kitchen
Maybe clean after the garden harvest and before the holiday baking. Then maybe after the holiday baking and before garden season. You always start with a kitchen reset before each season of high use.
Yes, stuffing things is a really bad habit! Good for you for fixing it!
Kim from over at @The Wads was just talking about your measuring cups
When I saw Becky washing the potatoes with the shoots, it reminded me of when Kim commented on Becky’s potatoes last year! I like how they overlap even though they haven’t done a collaboration.
@@monicas2461 Two great CZcamsrs.
Okay for the new coat closet, something to think about in the future, as Baby Acre gets older, you will want him to have a place he can learn to hang his coat also, so you will need something he can reach. For my kiddos, I got some hooks (similar to the white ones already in your closet) and attached them to the inside of the door at a height they can reach. I also put a hook in each of their rooms, so they can choose to hang their coats, hoodies, and backpacks wherever they prefer.
Put a handheld vacuum mounted in the closet between the brooms (in the kitchen ) plugged into the outlet in there.
As the baby gets older he will spill Cheerios and bits and you will appreciate having that small vacuum to just suck up anything small- between the baby and baking/cooking you will really love it hidden but close at hand and the battery charging.! Mine is in a similar spot.
