[quote=Anonymous]Our current plates barely fit in our cabinets and microwave, and we can't get bigger ones because the microwave is built into the cabinetry. I spend a lot of time thinking about my future kitchen reno. The best tip I've seen is ahead of the final decision, pay close attention to what you use, where it is, where it needs to go. Ideally you would spend a few weeks where you cooked several different recipes, thought about different activities you do in the kitchen. For example, when you are cooking your family favorite recipes, what do you need (ingredients, spices, cookware, utensils)? What appliances do you use? Same for when you cook big holiday dinners, birthday cakes, anything that is special for your family. Then as you plan your cabinetry and flow, make sure you have accounted for everything that you need to, so you don't get to your final kitchen and Aunt Linda's casserole dish doesn't fit anywhere.
