Almost every kitchen has one and almost every home cook loves to complain about it: We’re talking about the oh-so-impractical corner cabinet. For the most part, the corner cabinet tends to be a black hole, where small appliances and gadgets go to live out the rest of their lives — untouched. Or, it’s just a totally empty waste of space because you know that the stuff that goes in there is impossible to get out.
We’ve written about some smart ways to make the most of kitchen corners (see: 3 Smart Ways to Make the Most of Kitchen Corners), and the topic got a lot of people talking on Reddit the other day. Users started posting videos to highlight their brilliant corner cabinet setups and, holy lazy Susan, were these setups impressive!

Everybody knows that the best place to eat in the Hamptons would be at Ina Garten’s house, where we could look through her pantry for things like locally-raised honey.

About five years ago my husband and I bought an old, decrepit house, and renovated it top to bottom. (My whole renovation story is here, if you want to see!) Part of that renovation included adding on an open kitchen that we outfitted with a semi-custom IKEA kitchen.
I loved designing my kitchen from scratch, and we saved a ton of money by doing most of the design and work ourselves. But let me tell you — when you go the DIY route, you do run the risk of missing details that can make a big difference. Here’s the biggest (yet surprising) mistake we made.

There are too many times when pork chops simply don’t get the praise they deserve. When cooked right, this lean cut becomes a tender, flavorful main course. It can serve as a simple supper yet also has a place on the table at a nice holiday dinner.
Whether you cook them on the stovetop, bake them in the oven, or grill them, be sure you’re not making one of these common mistakes the next time pork chops are on the menu.

Buying your groceries and home goods at a warehouse store like Costco or Sam’s Club can lead to big savings — but you need to be strategic about it. Buying things in bulk just for a deal can leave you with more product than you can use up, leading to jam-packed storage areas or, worse, spoiled food.

While it’s no secret that we’re big fans of rugs in the kitchen, lots of our readers are a little more on the fence. And we totally get it: Most rugs can’t stand up to the splatters, spills, and foot traffic of a typical home kitchen.
If you are super fancy (or just brave), you can throw a one-of-a-kind vintage rug down; for the rest of us, though, something washable, non-slip, and durable is best. That’s why we were pumped to learn that Amazon is currently having a sale on durable indoor/outdoor rugs from Ottomanson, including a bunch that are great for kitchens.
