KITCHN CURE! (Day 1 and 2)

Wow I haven't posted in a long time! Around 6 months to be exact! Anyway, the main topic for today (or tonight) is my horrendous kitchen. ._.

Since I have a month or so to go before school starts again, I decided to clean my entire house. I hope that by having a clean, appealing house my brain will feel more rested and less overwhelmed on a daily basis. In the process of that, I found this thing online called the 'Kitchn Cure', which I thought would help the process of cleaning the kitchen. As the kitchen is one of the most heavily used spaces, at least in my house, it is full of everything that doesn't belong anywhere in particular (like laundry and first aid stuff and appliances). Obviously, it is also full of food that is often not edible anymore or fights for attention such that no one knows certain food exists, until it is not edible anymore. D:

Anyway, here are (a lot of) pictures documenting the before and after of the process. I think I shall post the 'before' pictures in separate posts because I don't want to induce a headache from the utter eyesore it is in its entirety.


Day 1: Declutter and clean refrigerator


Well, obviously the fridge door needed more work haha. But at least I could see yoghurt and asparagus and food that wasn't chocolate and ice cream and sauce (whether expired or not).



Brief interlude:
My lunch after day 1!




Day 2: Declutter and clean pantry

These are the before pictures. I went on to spend 3-4 hours cleaning up. ._. And then a gigantic cockroach appeared in the kitchen because it was attracted to the light and I gave up and went to bed.


 Bonus picture! (Which I accidentally uploaded.) Heart-shaped strawberry!
