Share pics of your kitchen/organization

[robertandenith]

I want to see pics of your kitchens, counters, pantry, refrigerators (inside of course! lol), just for organizational info. I 'think' I have found the way to organize my small kitchen but want to get ideas of everyone in here. Specially having all these big size gadgets for living in the raw.

Thanks for sharing.. in advance! :D

Here is part of mine. Last year when I started raw the first time we added this counter in the dining room so I could have my raw area when I purchased the excalibut & vitamix.....this year we added the shelves on the wall and I move the book and keep soaking or sprouting up there. I still have yet to add shelves inside the cabinet. My refigerator is not as well oganized as I would like it to be (but everything that doesn't get peeled is first soaked in veingar/water and scrubbed as I can't afford all organic before it goes in there). As always I am trying new things and looking for ways to make alot of improvement and I am sure this year it will change and expand alot! I have not tried the miso in there as I am doing 100% raw right now. Hubby complains there is nothing to eat in there normally but since he is currently doing 100% raw he's ok with it! If only he would plan to always do 100%.....at least he says he will do high raw after a month of 100% for blood pressure reduction and weight loss.....he just finished day 7 today! Have a good night and excuse the mess in my fridge! :p

Holy Cow Gosia!!!!! I love your stocking items, I am going BANANAS! :D :eek: :p

That's ok luvnraw, sometimes that what works for you, I like how you have all your veggies in plastic zip lock bags.

Rawkinlocs thanks for the link, I love that kitchen w/o the stove! :eek: We got a new stove a year ago but I wish I could get rid of it and put an organizer in there for my veggies, but then we will be moving from here in a year maybe 2 or 3 don't know yet, so the stove has to stay :( oh well! I too organize everything when I do shopping a week later the fridge turns into a big mess! lol can't keep anything straight for long... :eek:

I took pics of my organization but needs to upload them to the computer, I'm so lazy! :rolleyes:

also you may see a few non raw items, this is because my oldest is not 100% raw... yet! :p :D

[luvnraw]

robertandenith ~ I think it looks great! I too have the non-raw as hubby is currently doing it but doesn't plan to stick with it :( I love your new profile pic, is that a raw pizza you are peeking through? :p

[robertandenith]

yes that's me!!! HEhehe!!! they are flax, i later broke into pieces to make flax crackers my family's fav food!

[Gosia]

Wow, robertandenith, your kitchen looks sparkling clean and organized.

I always tend to think that our kitchen is a mess. Thanks for the compliment, this lifted up my spirits. (I better clean my fridge!)

We got rid of the stove too.

Gosia.

[robertandenith]

oh how awesome for not having the stove. thanks for your compliments, it's hard to keep it organized while preparing foods, I been thinking of getting a portable island kitchen. I want a lot of things *sighs* just need the money to get them! lol

even though I don't understand what it says thanks for sharing your pics :D :p :) what is that in the dehydrator? it looks so yummy!

[RawFoodieMom]

great pics, everyone. I was hoping to see another thread like this, or the previous one resurrected. :) I'm currently in the works of totally rearranging my kitchen as it's very small, and extremely inefficient right now. I don't have any funds for remodelling or anything so I'm just trying to purge anything that doesn't need to be there and create more space.

luvnraw, I'm so glad you posted your pics. I've been trying to think of a new thing to do with my bananas as I just don't have room to keep them in bowls or anything and I find if they are in bowls they bruise, etc. I LOVE what you've done with the cup hook. I'm definitely going to do that, what a great solution. I'm going to put more cup hooks under the cupboards and hang them like that. Perfect. :) I have this banana tree stand thingee that I'm currently using but that only holds one bunch. I mean, like how long does one bunch of bananas last? :D Plus now I will have more space where the banana tree currently is that I won't need anymore. :p

I promise to post pics as soon as everything's rearranged!

Gosia, holy moly... If you don't finish all those mangoes, can you send some my way? :D

They look awesome...

[mypinkbow]

These are pictures of my raw kitchen which is actually in our huge oversized laundry room. My family is not RAW and all my stuff was overtaking the kitchen. So I now have my own space to attempt to create my raw creations without the temptation of having to deal with SAD foods. The bottom pic was the first addition to the raw food kitchen and as you can see it is quickly expanding. I had a sink installed so I didn't have to run upstairs everytime I needed to rinse out the Vitamix or Food Processor..........

And I just got my new Green Star Juicer today.......I peeked in the box and there are all kinds of attachments and stuff ..........looked a bit overwhelming. I will tackle that tomorrow.

So with my own space and full stocked RAW kitchen there is no reason I should not be able to lose 100 pounds and stay raw. I have been RAW for about a week now at about 85% over all. some days 100% ..........

Thanks for letting me share my raw kitchen!

Does a moderator or someone know how to make these pictures smaller. Sorry about that..........

[Gosia]

RawFoodieMom, apologies, mangoes are already gone. :( I have some spare oranges, if you like. :)
