No, the title is not a reference to me or anyone I know!
Part of organization for me is doing a little work now to get out of a little (or a lot!) of work later. I picked up these measuring cups at Walmart for a whopping 97 cents! Each cup is divided into different measurements, for instance the 1/2 cup has a line showing the 1/4 cup measurement. Then I put them into different baking items. The flour got the cup, since I use it the most with the biggest amounts, the 1/2 cup went in the sugar, the 1/4 cup in the powdered sugar, etc. Now for the less work part...I just leave the cups in there and then I don't have to wash them! I have another set for measuring other things when I need to. So, I'm either really smart or really lazy! The question is: What could I do now to save me a little work later. Any ideas?
I also put in a picture of my baking cupboard...the bins for the flour and sugar are actually charcoal holders from Lowe's. I love finding solutions to storage in odd places!

Hey, I keep measuring cups in my baking ingredients as well, but never on purpose. Maybe I should try doing it on purpose.
Another great tip!
Charcoal holders? Interesting. I never use a mop anymore. I wet down old rags and walk around my kitchen with them on my feet. It makes mopping a ton easier for me!
I leave my measure cups in my flour and sugar too! Ha, Ha. I haven't tried charcoal tubs. Humm. Might have to look at those...
