Maybe you can help me, then. I get messed up with things like my “comino” and “cumin,” for example. If all I have is my Spanish-label comino and I’m thinking “cumin”, I might reach up in a hurry and grab the coriander.

Or, Mexican Oregano. I can’t file it under Mexican, it should be O for Oregano or I’ll never find it when I need to. But then that “Mexican” just jumps out at me between the Nutmeg and the Pumpkin Pie Spice and I want to put it over to the left more.

Then the Herbes de Provence I have next to the Pumpkin Pie Spice on the left, *should* be under H, except I think “Provence” when I want that herb selection. I guess I cheat.

Then there’s that whole square, round, bottle thing. Shouldn’t “like” containers be grouped together?

I am living by my wits, without a rack or my wonderful little cabinet-sized adjustable mini-stairsteps, which are in storage. It’s so haphazard in my cabinets now!

Do I stack those little McCormick’s round plastic jars on top of each other, alphabetically from bottom to top or from top to bottom? When I do that, I avoid using the middle ones so the stack won’t get messed up for that 20-30 seconds I’m using them.

I hope you can help me! My curried Cool Whip on my Georgia Cracker Pie was just wrong! The cinnamon jar *should* have been on top!
