An important tip for all - white board in Kitchen for tasks reminder

prabhabala · Aug 2, 2007

hi all,

Buy a small board (White boards or black boards are available in the stationary shops ) and hang it in ur kitchen. As kitchen is the place we visit a number of times in a day . make a note of small things that u have to do the next day in the board so that u will not forget important things.
I do it regularly and it works wonderful.

For example:

Booking gas

Buying some things from the market.

To order drinking water.

To pay some bills

Even ur menu for the next day.......

Anything that way.....................

Dear Prabha,
Nice tip
But I keep a diary in my kitchen and note down all the things as and when they occur to me because I do not want any guests to see my "to-do" list

hi,

I have a small note pad using a magnet on my fridge for me and another one for my kids. my kids were the inspiration for putting notes on the fridge. they used to just put a "sorry" "love you" "make noodles tonight" sort of stick on notes on the fridge. so now there is a place for any drawing,circular,any notes to the family on the fridge. it is one place that does not go unnoticed by my husband/children.

Hi Shanti,
Nice tip. Even i too try to follow the same in our house. Thanks alot.

Generally i make the to-do things list and carry in my hand bag so that i refer when i coming back from office.

hi,

U can always hang it in a place that is not noticed by others.
U can rub them when ur guests come.

Especially if u want to soak for something ex : for soaking dosa or chana
u can make a note of it in the board or the note pad as shanthi has specified so that u will not forget.

U can also write some good proverbs or sayings so that u see it right in the morning when u come into the kitchen and feel refreshed.

Hi Prabha,

I will pin a bunch of papers and will keep in the kitchen or near the dinning

table. I will also write then and there the things need to buy. The next time

when we go out I will take the list and it will be easy and we will not forgot

anything which we need. At time of function, like Avani avitam or Krishna

Jayanthi, I will prepare the menu and write in the slip, before 1 week. So that

you can check for the provision and youcan get them before the function, and

we can prepare all the items with out any last time tension.

True.

I am practising this efficiency improvement trick for the past 5 years

and this has helped remove a lot of stress from running

a house on a tight schedule.
