Kitchen Confidence for Kids
Cooking is an essential part of life. And yet, many people grow up without learning...
If you’ve refreshed your kitchen this month and straightened up your freezer, you’re ready to roll! It’s organized and fresh — so let’s keep it that way.
If you were a little troubled during your freezer cleanout and found yourself thinking, “When did I buy that?” or “I didn’t even know I had this … too bad it’s freezer-burned — it would’ve been good,” then it’s time for a new habit.
Do just one simple thing every day: Take one minute to check in.
With a quick glance, you’ll run your kitchen — and your freezer — like a boss.
Each day, take a moment to look and see what you have.
Do it in the morning, or the night before so you can pull things out to thaw for tomorrow’s dinner.
When you follow this simple routine, it will become a habit. You’ll naturally check your freezer several times a week. Nothing will get hidden in the back, or go to waste, or be forgotten.
You’ll also build a strong visual memory of what’s in your freezer. When you’re at the store you’ll think, “Oh right, I have that chicken … or tomato sauce … I can use that.”
A regular check-in means delicious meals are always at your fingertips — without the stress of last-minute decisions or rushed grocery runs.
This one-minute habit is easy to start and hard to live without. You’ll be amazed how much smoother your week feels when you follow a few simple routines.
And if you skip a day, no worries — just pick it back up. Like most good things in the kitchen, it’s about rhythm, not perfection.
But hopefully this silly picture will remind you to do Your Daily check-in.
