What is a woman to do?
Food is becoming increasingly important in my life with Mr. R. We started taking classes from my mom, going to wine tastings...we write about restaurants, we cook together, discuss pros and cons of certain cuisine styles, we experiment new recipes but now we have reached the tipping point.
We are possibly close to a schism...or at least I am.
Mr. R's enthusiasm for food has brought him to demand a proper food pantry. Not a section in the kitchen, not a couple of cupboards but an actual room entirely dedicate to food.
This would not be a problem if we lived in a 200 square meters flat, or if we had two closets in our current apartment, but in order to create a dedicated space for the food, we had to empty the shoe closet.
Now, where am I supposed to store my 96 pairs of shoes????
Mr. R owns about 4 pairs of shoes, so this is no problem of his..but since the pantry idea has popped up I finds myself turning and tossing trying to find a solution.
I bought a shoe storage device, but it only fits 12 pairs. I tried packing away the winter boots, but still there are lots of colorful sandals and black pumps that need a home.
Right now, the apartment looks like a disaster took place. Shoes everywhere, the closed half full of food, Mr. R anxious to get his project going...me distressed about finding a home for my heels.

If you have any spare pairs you need to get rid of...let me know ;) You need to build a shoe storage thing into the inside on the door. That's what we have at my apartment and it works well. There are little shelves built down the length of the door so you can store your shoes. And then we use the closet itself for other storage.
