My perception of functionally well-designed kitchen has changed for the better when I discovered this buzzing website Food52. For those of you who aren’t so familiar, Food52 is basically a one-stop place for all foodies in the kitchen. Yes, I believe that’s me. I am happily volunteering myself to be in that category. It’s a great place for all food community (eaters and cooks) to come together and share ideas. It even has Food52 Hotline where you can ask any questions about recipe, food sources, cooking technique…etc. Ohhhh but wait… an online shop? Yes, THE best curated kitchen shop in my opinion. Just want to warn you, it might make you want to overhaul your entire kitchen, right now. It certainly did to me. As I started pinning items on my wishlist I had to stop and say, “Forget it! I want EVERYTHING!” I know coveting can be a dangerous thing. Trust me, I don’t need to add more “things” in my space. I realized that I can not really organize my life and feel happy if clutter starts to build and I am holding onto things that I no longer need or have personal value. It starts with purging and making small positive changes in your space and in your life. Wouldn’t it be great if everything you own in your kitchen or in your home has cherishable value? So I decided to take time in searching for things in my life. Basically doing enough soul searching before purchasing anything for my home. Food52 Shop has made that easier for me. Thanks Food52!
