Are Kitchen Pot Racks Best Left Hanging in the 1980s?

YES

THEY WERE THE VANGUARD of a trend that still dominates today: home kitchens that emulate those in professional restaurants. In a retrospective for the National Kitchen and Bath Association, designer and kitchen historian Ellen Cheever noted that, by the status-craving 1980s, manufacturers were catering to "gourmet cooks."

Girl, interrupted? You might say that about Johanna Garcia of food purveyor Real Girl, Toy Kitchen (who also happens to be one of the writers of this section). Garcia used to work as the communications director of HSBC Philippines from 2007 to 2013, until the thought of starting up her own food business began to seem more appetizing than her corporate job.

'Business is the best thing to change society' says Ella's Kitchen founder Paul Lindley

In 2018, Paul Lindley stepped away from Ella's Kitchen, the organic baby food brand he started and named after his daughter, to become a champion of children's nutrition and welfare internationally. After selling the brand in 2013 to Hain Celestial, seven years after founding it, he knew there were other challenges to face. He has since become the UK chair of Robert Kennedy Human Rights and a Trustee of Sesame Workshop – the creators behind Sesame Street, and a counsellor for One Young World, among other things. He enjoys keeping busy, he explains. "What I tried to do after Ella's Kitchen was step away and think about what really interests me in life. I've got lots of years left hopefully where I can make a difference and I focused on making business work better for our economy and for our society and what is the purpose of business and then trying to use entrepreneurship in non-business or not-for-profit business areas. Some fantastic stuff is happening with socia...

When it comes to her home, Tamra Judge is living by the motto, "An organized home means an organized life." The Real Housewives of Orange County alum recently shared a peek inside her freshly reorganized and decluttered pantry — and let's just say, the result is downright impressive. After recruiting luxury home organization firm Simply Seaside Organizing for help in straightening out the kitchen and master bathroom, Tamra took to Instagram to share a look at the newly immaculate space, beginning with her pantry. As captured in the series of photos below, the food storage area is now the epitome of organization goals, with cans, spices, snacks, and other items neatly arranged and separated in rows of labeled baskets and plastic containers. Several cabinets around the kitchen, including those above the counter and under the sink, have also been reorganized to efficiently display dishes, mugs, water bottles, and even c...
