We recently outgrew our ceramic kitchen utensil and spoon holder. Trying to
cram gently fit and remove wooden spoons and utensils from it was like playing
Kerplunk on a daily basis.
After a losing round of kitchen spoon Kerplunk for the third time that day, Husband made the off hand comment that we need a new utensil organizer. He's right and we did what happens a little too often than I care to admit.
We totally forgot about doing something about it until the next round of
quickly grab a ladle and everything else comes with it. Grr!
After losing that game one night after cleaning up from making
crock-pot chicken enchilada soup recipe (read it on my food blog Lazy Budget Chef here) I liked how the empty red
El Pato Enchilada Sauce can looked in contrast to the green ceramic utensil holder on the counter. Instead of popping the empty aluminum can into the recycling bin, I washed it out and plunked my short handled
Instant Pot paddles into it. Whimsical and functional!
But I needed more.
Fortunately, that was only a cup of coffee away. The next time I opened a can of
Cafe Du Monde coffee (Cafe Du Monde has been on of our favorite brands of coffee long before we visited New Orleans - so good!) I got the "medium" in my low, medium, and high food themed kitchen spoon organizer to follow the
decorating rule of three: odd numbers of objects look better clustered together than even numbers.
I am including affiliate links in this post for your convenience in case you don't have a local international grocery store that carries these super yummy (and now decorative) products.
Not to mention, using low, medium, and high kitchen utensil caddys saves counter space because I can cluster them together and still find everything I need.
What do you think?
