Pantry Revisited

My pantry has become my nemesis.

Phineas and Ferb Nemesis Song


First, Before pictures. 

Step one: 
Take everything out. 

Um, wow...

Empty pantry




*Double sigh*

Having everything on the counter was making me twitchy. 
I just started putting it back in. 
It looked a little better. 
The wall pocket worked great. 
But, the rest of the pantry... Meh. 







It is the cutest pantry EVAH? Um, no.
Does it make me smile every time I open the door? 
Can I find everything and see exactly what's on hand? 

Any suggestions on how to liven it up? 

What area of your house would you consider your nemesis?

I have to wonder...are you sure you put the shelf paper jelly side down?

I just went through this...we got a new vent hood thingy over the stove. For the first time in 14 years, we can now use the oven at more than 350 without setting off the smoke detectors in three states.
But the vent actually goes to the outside of the house, requiring some actual duct work that fills part of the cabinet above the hood. Where I kept 14 years worth of first aid supplies, vitamins that should have changed my life, and three cans of turmeric.
What the hell is turmeric? Why would I ever need more than one can? I gave it to my neighbor who actually cooks.
I still have a giant box of...stuff...that needs to be sorted.

There is not jelly side to this shelf liner. It's the same on both side. After complaining to several people, I've been informed this shelf paper is cheap and crappy. UGH.

I laughed at the vent thing. That is hilarious. And, I have no idea what turmeric is or why one might need three cans of it!

Oh, if only I HAD a pantry!!

As for my housing nemesis, let's see...probably the hallway closets, at the moment. They really really need to be cleaned out.
