There’s really only one word to describe the unpacking of my kitchen yesterday…EPIC! We stopped counting at about 20 boxes. As much as I hate packing and unpacking, I kind of love having a completely new, clean, and totally blank kitchen. I think one of my favorite things about our new place is the pantry. It’s HUGGEEE! And it has tons of storage for extra kitchen boxes that I had to store in the spare bedroom in our old place!
Although we still haven’t even unpacked our clothes yet and haven’t even hung up one picture, we did also put up our Halloween decorations…priorities, people, priorities.
While I continue to unpack the rest our boxes, I have another incredible blogger to introduce you to! Give a warm welcome to Emily from The Best of this Life. Emily was one of the first bloggers I met when I first started blogging and her blog is just beautiful! Not only does she share amazing gluten-free recipes, but she also writes about her family, entertaining, essentials, travel, and more! So after you check out the delicious muffins she has shared today, go check out her site and say hello!

I knew you would enjoy unpacking your kitchen. Of course it’s all because you have more space (the other way around would have sucked). LOL! I wish I had a huge pantry….I am always looking for more storage. Well then again it’s due to my addiction in buying all things cooking or kitchen related.
Love the muffins from Emily!! Great guest post ladies and have a wonderful weekend to both of you.

I am so envious of your big pantry! Mine is smaller than my last house, but there’s more cabinet space in the kitchen, so balancing it all out is something I’m still getting accustomed too. Can’t wait to see pictures of your kitchen and what you’re making in it! In the meantime, loving these muffins

Lucky you with the huge new pantry! Emily’s muffins look super…off to say hello to her
I think unpacking the kitchen would be a great relief but it would be a challenging trying to find the perfect spot for everything.
