Even the simplest of tasks can be dauntingly long when your in a rush and your family is in a rush. Sure we all try to pack lunches the night before, but personally, I never remember. Then I forgot that I didn't remember and I can be seen running around the kitchen packing lunches and trying not to forget anything 5 minutes before we have to leave.
The biggest problem I find is everything is everywhere! The fridge, the cupboard beside the stove the pantry and so on and so on. Then the bright idea dawned on me, why don't you take 5 minutes and put everything in ONE place.
Wow, simple thought, why did it take so long. Anyways, I now have one bin labelled "Lunch Stuff" With all of the lunch-making essentials: napkins, spoons, thermos, baggies, peanut butter, bread, crackers and other small snacks. So when I last minute have to prepare the lunches it is all there.
Then there is the problem on the refrigerated items, yogurt, fruits, cheese, meats, I have assigned a small bin (with a lid) to these items and put it the fridge. This way they are all together and organized.
Hope this helps everyone!
