What’s the best way to eat your daily recommended fruits and vegetables? Put them at eye level in the fridge, where you can see them (and remember to eat them). We’re fans of this strategy, as are the designers of the Fabrack, which is basically a hammock for your fruits and vegetables. Is this a product-oriented solution to the all-too-ineffective produce drawer?
Day 12 Task: Clean and Organize Your Pantry Shelves
After tossing, organizing, and donating my pantry goods, it was time to clean the cupboards and organize everything. This was the easiest and most satisfying assignment of The Kitchn Cure so far. I don’t have a ton of space in my cupboards, so it was a no-brainer on how to organize all the pantry goods in the kitchen. Remind me, why didn’t I do this earlier?

Jackson Galaxy is a bone fide cat whisperer. He’s the host of Animal Planet’s My Cat From Hell and co-author of the forthcoming Catification — he knows what makes our feline friends tick.

Cookbook: The Paleo Kitchen: Finding Primal Joy in Modern Cooking by Juli Bauer of PaleOMG & George Bryant of Civilized Caveman
Overall Impression: This book is a great resource for people interested in trying out the Paleo lifestyle without having to sacrifice their favorite comfort foods!
The Paleo diet has gained a huge following these past several years. The diet claims to follow the blueprint of what our ancestors ate and excludes things thought to be difficult to digest such as grains, legumes, dairy, processed oils, and refined sugars. You might be staring at me blankly right now thinking, “Well, then what the heck am I supposed to eat — sounds like a bummer.” I hear you.
