In response to "Starting 2012 Right: Make a Clean Sweep," one reader writes: "This is similar to a cleaning tip from Heloise, years ago. She used the kitchen as an example: Clear out the cabinet that holds your pots and pans, taking everything out to a not-too-easy place to retrieve, like your garage. When it comes time to use one of the pans that cabinet held, go out to the garage, get that one pan and leave everything else. Continue to do this for several days, bringing in only that which you actually need for that meal. At the end of a week or so, it becomes obvious (with what is left in the garage) what you don't need/use. You can then either donate it or sell it (just don't bring it back to the cabinet)."
