eventmom I'm happy for you unloading the mattress.
CatahoulaCate you probably do have more than the average challenge of fighting paper clutter. Like your signature says, celebrate your victories..(even if they seem unnoticeable sometimes )
Well thanks to sherry7899, I accomplished an unplanned (but much needed) decluttering of the cookbook cupboard. I had a file folder of wayward recipes that were diminished to only the most necessary that are all neatly organized in a binder by topic.
This spurred a hard sort of the recipe box of my MIL recipes and purged all clippings of recipes no one in our family would want to eat and even culled duplicate recipes. I had done a previous sort but the desire to throw away alot just wasn't there. It's hard to do that when it's so close in time to their passing. It's been 3 years now so it was doable for me and my husband. It made finding the treasured recipes so much easier and the recipe box is so much more inviting.
Perfect for upcoming Christmas cooking...as if I planned it all along, lol. Much love to Sherry for helping me look so organized
Now for that laundry room....
