5S at Home

There are some people who think there is no place for Lean at home.  Just like those who say you can't bake without ovens, I have to prove how mistaken some can be.  I've applied 5S to the kitchen.  It takes a bit longer, but I think the results will be better.
Sort- as I packed everything, I sorted through and got rid of things that were old and we don't use.
Shine- as everything is being put back, it's being cleaned and shined.
Set in order and Standardize- check out the pictures below!  Why wouldn't you keep things together- rice with the rice cooker.  Just saying. 
Sustain- I think we're going to make this work!

  1. Nice! Don't you love how work infiltrates your life? I find myself estimating taxes in a huge excel spreadsheet at home... (and here's the scary part) just for the fun of it!
