Kathi and Tonya are here today with details on the upcoming “Great 100 Item Cupboard Clean-Out!” On Wednesday January 26th, Kathi Lipp and Tonya Kubo are hosting a friendly challenge in Clutter Free Academy. You mission, should you choose to accept it: get rid of 100 items in your kitchen. It’s time to throw out those extra soy sauce packets, expired items, donate-able items, and takeout menus (you can find those menus on the Internet anyway). Listen in as the pair give all the details and guidelines for a successful kitchen clean-out.
Now, gather your supplies – some of Kathi’s go-to suggestions include:
- Garbage can/recycling can
- A box for food bank donations
- A black marker and labeling tape
- Plastic containers (Kathi’s favorite are the OXO Containers)

Giveaway: For a chance to win a copy of the book that started it all: Clutter Free by Kathi Lipp, take a picture of all the items you’re getting rid of or your newly decluttered kitchen space from the Jan 26th challenge.
Two photos will be randomly selected and each person will receive a copy of Clutter Free!

What We’re Giving Up
Here is what we are giving up. It may not seem to be a big deal (in fact, many of our friends have never had these...) but it will definitely take some getting used to: TIVO (and you have to remember, I married an engineer who had THREE Tivos...) All non-essential...
The Simple Life? What are we prepared to live without?
Ecclesiastes 7:30 JB "God made man simple; man's complex problems are of his own devising." Let's be clear. No one has ever confused me with Paris or Nicole. But I do have one thing in common with the bleached blond duo - I'm trying to live a Simpler Life. Roger and...
How to Make Sure Your Mother’s Day Doesn’t … Stink
I have a friend (we'll call her Jesse,) who, over the years, has had, let's say, a less than spectacular Mother's Day each year. It's not that she doesn't have a great husband - she does. But, her husband never really understood what a great Mother's Day would be for...






Thank you Tonya and Kathi for the inspiration. I am motivated and challenged by this episode. Already got my game plan ready.
I will be getting rid of ingredients that I bought for a specific baking purpose that I never used. Also, I’m trying to organize my pantry into categories better!
I’m not sure how to post a picture on here, but I got rid of a ton of expired foods, ketchup packets, and old baking ingredients!
I’m chuckling because I heard this shortly after we had to move everything out of our pantry and kitchen cupboards so we could fumigate for borer (think termites but not quite as destructive). We certainly got rid of heaps of cutlery and some mugs we hated.
Oh I had to laugh because I just donated an unopened bag of quinoa a few weeks ago!! Looking forward to 1/26! Keep up the good work and encouragement!
