=> Take inventory of what you currently have in stock in your
pantry/cabinets and freezer/refrigerator. Write it all down on a
list. Remove any items that have expired or you find you never
use, like the special pretty little bottles of jam that you received
for your birthday.

=> If you still don’t have enough storage after the inventory and
clearing of your pantry/cabinets look around your home and see
if there is a “different” place you can store your extra inventory.
For example: We have a small linen closet at the bottom of our
stairs. The bottom shelf is used for the downstairs bathroom
linens and the other four shelves are used to store any
canned/boxed/bottled goods – our pantry. When we lived in our
other house we had no extra closets so we purchased a portable
pantry, which I now use to store office supplies in. Click
