Once a week I dedicate a few hours of prep work. This means I get the food chopped, baked, boiled etc. for the upcoming meals. Getting a jump start on my meals for the week is a huge help. I make:
bread
granola
brown rice, barley or beans
chop up onions, carrots, and celery. It is messy!
After the whirling storm of cooking and baking, I'm really wishing for a kitchen fairy to come and clean up everything. Cleaning is not my favorite thing to do. I have found that I really like Myers Clean Day products. The Lavender scent is my favorite. It reminds me of being outside and fresh flowers.
After baking bread my counters, cupboards, and floor get a major dusting of flour. I felt so happy after cleaning up this week. Lavender scent saved the day.
We still have snow in our yard and the air is still chilly, but, I am getting the itch to start spring cleaning projects. I also need constant reminders to stay and be motivated.
Kitchen duties can take a lot of time, but I find that the rewards of healthy homemade choices are worth it. My families health and well-being are a priority to me.
