My kitchen is a small galley size, so I was especially interested in reading what Lee Norton had to say about making items in my kitchen more accessible.  When we moved to this house, I gave away and threw out anything that I had two of, which is one of the ideas in the book. But after reading just a few pages, I knew that I had happened upon the master declutter book of all time.  Here was a book that really could make life in my kitchen go a lot smoother and would also save me a lot of time and energy.Although, I do have my cookbooks stored close by but out of the way of any splashing, spilling or cooking mishap danger, I have always been at a loss as to where to put one when I was actually using a recipe.  His idea for a retractable bookstand was just the tip I needed to solve this life-long, irritating problem.Declutter It! Gives numerous ideas for getting the maximum storage out of every area in your kitchen, from cabinets, to pantry to refrigerators, the book covers it all.  His advice to always buy square, stackable storage containers makes perfect sense... the round ones I am using leave much wasted space and are always tipping over in the frig.Regardless of the size and setup of your kitchen, you will get tons of declutter ideas that will shortly have you spending less time in the kitchen.  In fact, the only thing I found not to like in the book was the inordinate number of typos.  Even with the typos, I had to award it a five-star rating because the book is jam-packed with useful and easy-to-apply ideas.
