Good morning!

I slept later than usual this morning, until 8:30, and have been drinking coffee and reading the posts from last night. Lots of fun stuff on the board yesterday -- well, if you don't count the baby throw-up.

Jello shooters.....I had never had one until we went to the Jimmy Buffett concert last month. The people (20 somethings) who were tailgating next to us in the parking lot had some orange jello shooters and were kind enough to share. Very good, but lethal, because you can't even taste the vodka.

I am still waiting for Judith Light's name to pop up in Kacee's movie post. When she does, I'll jump in...lol!

I'll be working on my pantry again this morning. I have been thinking and puzzling how to store all the spices and extracts so that they are in order and can be easily found. I think DH is going to run 3 narrow shelves above one of the main shelves for me (back and both sides). That way, I think I can spot what I need without too much trouble. Up until now, I have kept all the spice jars and bottles in a big bowl, and what a hassle, having to pull out and go through that bowl every time I need a certain spice. I think the narrow shelf idea will work, but does anyone else have a better idea? Where is Francine when I need her? sigh....

I'm going to get dressed now, then get busy finishing up the work in the pantry. Have a great Sunday, bugs, and I'll be back in a bit......BB

That's not the one I meant. At the end of the "Spin A Solution" section it talks about graduated shelves like stair steps. I find that works best and sounds like what you're doing. By making them like stair steps you can get lots more in one area. The best way I've seen it done is to put a short piece in the front of each 'step' to keep the spices on their shelves so you don't knock them down while reaching for other ones...Susie

Hugs,

Oh yes, I see what you mean now. Thanks, Suze. Still thinking and planning. I think I will go to WalMart in a few minutes and see if they have something that I could attach to the inside of the door. Decisions, decisions!..LOL!....BB
