Extra Spicy

Okay, so if anyone didn't believe that I actually have a Type A, OCD personality, here's your proof.
I re-did my spice labels on my mason jars because I wasn't entirely happy with them.

I had to peel off the old labels and use goof-off  to get rid of the old label gunk and make way for my new, prettier labels!

 I ended up ordering labels online from here. These labels are smaller, waterproof, dishwasher safe and stain resistant. Which is great because while baking and cooking sometimes I can make a mess and accidentally leave cookie dough on the cinnamon jar.

If anyone has the name of a good therapist please leave it in the comments section below. ;)

The Spice of Life

I should have done this a long time ago, but what matters is that I’m doing it now!

My spices are a mess, some are on a rack I got from Crate and Barrel while others are in bags, or all different shaped containers. I think there should be a law that enforces all companies to use the same spice container so everything matches! But since the world isn’t perfect and life is messy I will just have to create a law for my kitchen.

I looked high and low for cute spice containers, the trouble is most are quite small. Nothing is worse than having to keep a whole bunch of half empty refill bags lying around. (I buy the bags or spices in bulk because it’s just so much cheaper) So my cute and cost effective solution was mason jars! And of course adorable labels.

This is just one step in my kitchen clean up plan, but it feels gooood!
