Because I drive the boys to school, nothing was more disheartening than to walk into a kitchen full of dirty dishes after I returned from driving. Now, I walk into an already clean kitchen.Maria (also Bia)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10915816897999091636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8631409953304217792.post-28340240592494950062012-08-31T09:39:16.904-05:002012-08-31T09:39:16.904-05:00Love using the slow-cooker, especially now that it...Love using the slow-cooker, especially now that it's nearly fall!

Love being able to see everyone's schedule month at a glance.<br /><br />The main thing that keeps me on track is running the dishwasher every night before bed and unloading the clean stuff before dropping off the kids at school. Kitchen cleanup is much easier throughout the day this way.<br /><br />Last spring I finally got each of us bins for shoes to keep in our coat closet (we don't have a mudroom), it so much more organized now.Liz Slaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01891933207570738477noreply@blogger.com
