If you knew how visual I am, you'd just shake your head and walk away. I'm one of those people who would like to have every book with its front cover, rather than just the spine, facing out. Yes, it's highly impractical, for we have thousands of books and it's bad enough finding place for all of those. Imagine if our walls were covered in books. (I can imagine it; can you?)
And then there's my desk and any other place where I'm studying: If I'm sitting in the living room, there will be papers and books in a semi-circle around me on the floor. I need to see where stuff is!
And so it is with the cayenne, chives, peppermint, cilantro, orange peel, coriander, parsley, and other items I have dried and store on my counter top in these lovely old jars.
My problem with putting things away in closets is that it's so easy to forget I even own it. Talk about a First World Problem, I know!
Then again, if I put everything away in closets, I wouldn't be able to see that beautiful jar of red cayenne peppers sitting on my kitchen counter. How I would miss that!
Do you like stuff out where you can see it or behind closed doors? And if you want to give me a little pep talk about organization, feel free. I can take it. :-)
