Ahhhhhh… SPRING! Open windows, kids playing outside, grilling, lawn mowing, flowers blooming… and housework gets put on hold. After such a long winter, who wants to be inside? Not me! But when you do get the itch to start SPRING CLEANING, start with the kitchen!

Day 1: Move the Monsters
Day 2: Face the Madness
Day 3: Shop for Storage
Day 4: Create Stations
Day 5: Add Polish
