    Start with an empty dishwasher Most of the dirty dishes in our house are produced during dinner prep and dinner. By starting with a dishwasher that has space for the dishes they no longer get stacked up in the sink. As soon as dinner is over and the table is cleared the dishwasher is started for the night. In the morning we empty the dishwasher and start the day fresh.

    Tackle the counter top while dinner is cooking We all have the area in the kitchen that seems to accumulate all the stuff we get in the mail, from our families, and our bags. While dinner is cooking do a quick clean through these piles and prioritize what needs to be handled tonight, tomorrow or in the future. Pass out papers/mail/stuff that is specific to each family member and have them go through the papers. Designate one spot for outgoing mail and papers that need to be signed preferably outside of the kitchen.

    Keep your most used kitchen tools easily accessible I am pretty sure I use 20% of my kitchen tools 80% of the time. I place these tools in an easy to reach canister on the counter top so I don't have to hunt for them each night. I can easily find what I need while cooking and easily put them away once they are clean. The rest of the tools are kept in the kitchen drawers for when I need them.

    Clean out the fridge as you prepare dinner Keep a garbage can within easy reach as you are preparing dinner. As you see things in the fridge that are past their “good by” date or fruits/veggies that are turning south quickly you can easily toss them in the garbage. Eliminate having to go back and clean out the fridge at a later time.
