Clutter Free Academy

Are you ready to create some breathing room before the holiday chaos begins?

In this episode of Clutter Free Academy, hosts Kathi Lipp and Tonya Kubo discuss their annual 30-Day 1K Challenge, where participants declutter 1,000 items during November. They explain why this challenge is perfectly timed before the holiday season and how it's achievable for everyone, regardless of their current clutter situation. Kathi and Tonya emphasize that perfect systems aren't necessary for progress, encouraging listeners to take "imperfect action" rather than waiting for the perfect plan.

Listeners will discover:

• Why starting small is crucial for success
• How to gamify decluttering to get the whole family involved
• Tips for handling sentimental items and adult children's belongings
• The importance of community support during decluttering

Whether you're a busy mom trying to reclaim your kitchen table, an empty-nester ready to part with decades of "someday" items, or just someone tired of feeling overwhelmed by stuff, this challenge is for you.

Join the Clutter Free Academy Facebook Group to receive your 30-Day 1K Calendar to help track your progress. Remember to answer all three questions to join the group! It's how we keep it the nicest corner of the internet.

In this episode, Tonya mentioned the time she rented a dumpster. Listen to the original Episode 434: Do I Need a Dumpster?

Hey there, friend! Are you feeling overwhelmed by the thought of cooking dinner tonight?

We’ve been there.

In this episode of Clutter Free Academy, we’re diving into the world of easy, delicious meals that won’t drain your energy or your wallet. In this second installment of their two-part series, Kathi Lipp and Tonya Kubo continue their discussion about Kathi’s new book, Sabbath Soup, offering practical tips and strategies for stress-free meal planning and cooking. They discuss the importance of valuing both time and energy when it comes to meal preparation, and offer encouragement to listeners who may feel overwhelmed by the daily task of feeding their families.

Kathi’s Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

Ingredients:
5 cups oatmeal
2 cups butter, room temperature
2 cups granulated sugar
2 cups brown sugar
4 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
4 cups flour
2 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
24 oz. chocolate chips
1 8 oz. Hershey bar, grated
3 cups chopped nuts (your choice)

Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
2. Measure the oatmeal and place it in a blender to blend into a fine powder.
3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and both sugars. Add the eggs and vanilla and stir to combine with the butter mixture, then stir in the flour, blended oatmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir in the chocolate and nuts.
4. Scoop the dough into balls and place about 12 to a cookie sheet, evenly spaced, baking in batches. Bake for 10 minutes.
5. To freeze for later baking: Flash freeze scooped dough balls on a cookie sheet. Individually frozen dough balls are easier to handle and will keep their shape better when transferred to a freezer bag for longer-term storage. Alternately, form the dough into a log about 2 inches around and wrap in plastic wrap. Put the dough in the bag and write baking directions on the bag. I like to experiment with the cookies and find out what the baking time and temp is for frozen dough as well as thawed dough. Bake for 10 minutes, and then keep checking every 2 minutes to get them just perfect.
