We moved recently, it was hard. I mean, all those guys moving big stuff.

I was a lot to take. Like how in the world did we manage to accumulate so much stuff in the past decade?

Seriously, I threw out a ton- and we still had so much crap.

I mean a lot of it is actually really nice things we need, use, and love. But when you’ve got to cart it all down 4 flights of stairs and then strap it down to take to a new house- it all looks like crap in that giant moment of extreme frustration.

Luckily, I was given a few good tips along the way that actually did help make the whole process less stressful.

Pack room by room, beginning with the most unnecessary. We packed our living room and dining rooms first. All stuff we don’t use on a regular basis.

Also, making sure to clearly label each box first by room it’s meant to go in, and then a sub heading with contents.

We also removed all pictures/art work from walls and bubble wrapped and packed that, including in bed rooms and bathrooms. Spackling and sanding any holes as we went.

Invest in paper plates and throwaway utensils so you can pack your kitchen before the last week is up. I had to suck it up, and be OK with delivery pizzas and the fast food life that last week.

Oh and lots and lots of cold cuts and pb & j sandwiches- but it was so worth it.

Make life simple, put all boxes immediately into their new homes and unpack them as you bring them in.

So basically our last two days at the old place, all we had to move out was bare bones furniture and it was immediately ready to be put in it’s places in our new home, which meant only a few things (like a box of books waiting on their book shelf) still needed to be put away upon settling in.

Packing with a bit of planning, meant that in only a couple of days my kitchen was completely transferred and up and running.

After all that stress, I needed something cozy to settle into my new kitchen with. It doesn’t get anymore comforting than with this easy recipe for our One Pot Creamy Chicken & Vegetable Pasta.
