Poor you!
I was clever tonight. Home Despot was selling 5 tier shelves (plastic, for the basement) for $40, but their 4 tier ones for $20. So I got two 4 tiers, made one 5 tier and one 3 tier, all for the same cost (and it was the number of shelves I needed.) Things aren't the most efficiently put away on them, but I've gotten all the luggage as well as some other crap, off the floor, where I either had to worry about it getting wet or me tripping over it. So that's a win, I think.
My basement still needs so much help (a lot of things I need to donate/go through and toss), but oh well.
I love onions! But don't cook enough to buy many at a time.
I don't like them raw, but I generally love them cooked; however, I don't cook with onions enough to buy a bag at a time. I generally just buy 1 onion at a time, when I know I'm going to be cooking something requiring an onion.
Hey, when you grow up, sarameg, you could be an Ikea hacker.
I just saw someone suggest a tip of buying onions in bulk, then cooking them and freezing in portion sizes you'd use for cooking. Then just defrost and use as needed.
Oh, but that would involve tools and tears! eta: but of course I'm going to Get Ideas now....
Yipes Consuela! I feel for you on that one.
Beans are done. Succulent and delicious. Why isn't it dinner time yet?
I just buy onions as needed, and if I find I have too many, I start thinking onion soup.
I took some of the leftover ham from yesterday, chopped it up and made mac and cheese with it. It was nom.
Great, already getting ideas to make a small mobile cart/workspace for the kitchen.
