Jars

Staying organized is always a work-in-progress, but nonetheless possible.  I tend to shop at places like Target, The Container Store or Pier One Imports for glass jars that are food safe. I like anything that can go in the dishwasher. Here is an assortment of cookies, crackers and candy that I have organized into glass jars. I like the look and the kids (and my husband) can see what’s in the pantry. If you have little ones put the glass jars up high, and save the lower shelves for food safe plastic containers. Be sure to cut out the ingredients (If the kids have allergies and the expiration date), and tape on the bottom of the jar. Check your expiration dates once a month. Staying organized takes a little work, but it’s worth the effort!
