Thinking inside the box

[mattbell]

My new place needs some love to turn it into a proper home.  The kitchen has almost no cabinets for storing food and kitchenware, but it does have a gargantuan fridge that I have all to myself.  I don't know why it took me almost a week to realize the perfect solution -- just use the fridge as additional storage space!  Would there be any harm in storing most dry foods at fridge temperatures?  If not I'll just start putting bowls and plates in there.

Longer term I should get a kitchen cabinet. :-)

As you know, my tiny kitchen in Brooklyn has this same issue.

And I really like this kind of solution to maximize wall space:

And we ultimately had to buy a small cabinet to also store food. BUT - I ended up not getting an "official" kitchen cabinet, rather we appropriated an IKEA shoe shelf/wardrobe THING which works just fine.
