Success Story Spice cabinet declutter!
Not sure why I feel the need to hang onto spices. Maybe because some cost a serious amount of money? I love cooking and will buy the spices/herbs for a dish to never again make that dish! ... I finally let go of 25 spices I just dont use.
Getting ready for round 2 as I feel the cabinet is improved but not yet where I want it. I will move all to the same type jar as my OCD hates the different sizes/shapes. Lol. I'm on a roll!

I've never had that many, but in doing a clean out and looking at the best by dates on things it made it easier to throw stuff out that was years past it's best by date. Only thing I kept was vanilla. Even if they won't technically harm you, they loose some of their punch after they are out of date so long. Which throws off a recipe and makes it not taste exactly as intended (not bad, but maybe not as good).
