Don’t knock it til you try it, the saying goes, and in this case it applies. While some of the things I’m suggesting might sound insane or perhaps a little (okay, a lot) OCD, they’re tricks that work, and hey, isn’t that really the bottom line?


1. Keep a marker in the freezer:
If you’re the type of person who cooks a lot and freezes the leftovers, or someone who likes to buy in bulk, keeping a marker in the freezer might mean the difference between “what is this?” and “here’s the pasta sauce I made last summer when the tomatoes were at their peak”. Use it to label and date whatever you’re freezing. Bonus: no more frozen mysteries, no more wondering where to find a marker to label stuff.

2. Collect pint size versions of your favorite toiletries and store them in your suitcase:
This is one of those silly ideas that I used to scoff at until the TSA changed the rules and mini became the rule. Whether it’s a flight across the country, around the world, or a quick overnighter, keeping small size versions of your toiletries in your suitcase means you’re always ready to go. Since all the things I like and need don’t always come in small sizes, I pick them up whenever I see them. Bonus: No last minute scramble, and they don’t take up valuable real estate in your already crowded linen closet.

3. Pack up your beach or ski stuff:
As for traveling, so for sports. In my beach bag I store sunscreen, a towel, a blanket, bathing suits; my ski boots share space with my ski clothes, handwarmers and another stick of sunscreen.Bonus: always ready to go.
