Getting in the Kitchen

A dirty kitchen is often a staple in my home. Not because I avoid it (ok, sometimes that's the reason), but I spend so much time in there making meals or snacks that it seems impossible to keep clean. My remedy for this is to eat out; this often keeps my kitchen free of disasters for a few meals. This nasty little habit becomes expensive and the ease of it is addicting. So, in an effort to provide my family with healthier meals and stay within my budget I've decided to embrace a dirty kitchen. Don't worry, that doesn't mean that I will neglect my kitchen cleaning duties. It's time I forget about the pains of doing dishes and enjoy the smiles and full bellies at the table from a good healthy meal.
