Tidy Tips: Storing and Organizing Play Food

I have been a neglectful blogger lately, but in my defense we moved and I am 7 months pregnant, so yeah....  I have lots of great things coming, slowly, but surely, I have to get my husband graduated this April though!

My son has been way into birthdays lately.  Lots of family members have had birthdays and he really digs the birthday song and blowing out the candles.  I am glad he is into it since he will be 2 at the end of April.  Where did the time go!?

The other day while shopping at IKEA, I saw their play food and HAD to get the birthday cake.  Then the other food was way too cute to resist, so we ended up getting it all and he has been having so much fun with it!  We have a daily birthday party now, it is too cute.

 Once I got the food home, I wasn't sure how to organize it.  We don't have a play kitchen (yet...I am having a girl, I am sure we will soon enough!), and I didn't like this....

 I started thinking what the best way to organize play food would be.  I had 2 thoughts.  First, how do I store real food?  Second, I have an over abundance of Tupperware and you know how I love to use it for other things, here and here.

The solution was simple.  Here is the result.....

Before....

After....

 So much nicer!  All neatly put away in its home.

How do you store play food?

Around the Town Tuesday

I spent the morning in Bountiful(Utah) with my sisters. We went exploring on Main Street and happened upon the cutest little shops.

All Tucked In... Extraordinary gifts books and toys.




They are all ready for Fall and Halloween, and the store is filled to the brim with cute decor for the season.



They have beautiful books, delightful collections, and decor for kids rooms and around the home.



I DIED when i saw this adorable "pumpkin head" doll...



A girl can never have too many pretty jackets, especially in Utah.
