It's OK to have some space in there! The thing I hate the most is having
a bunch of different sized bowls stacked inside each other, like Russian
dolls. Or any other case of having to remove 7 items to get out the 1
you're using.

Yep, that's a bone of contention around here ... that, and putting
things back where they belong in the kitchen (hate it when I burn a roux
because I have to go through a *dozen kitchen drawers for something
that's not in the drawer where it was last time).

And the four hundred plastic containers, none with a lid that fits,
ranks right up there.

In short, put the girl on stage with a guitar and she'll warm your heart
... in the kitchen, she'll give you heartburn.

(*I've already decided that if I ever build her another kitchen, it will
only have one cabinet, and one drawer)

Then again, you gotta make allowances for someone who once flew back (to
Houston, TX, in July!) from a gig in Toronto with a huge (so huge it had
to be hand carried) windshield ice scraper she bought in the airport????

Which was really no more baffling than recently finding her reading
glasses in the dog food bag, and the scoop from the bag in the freezer??

... still trying to figure that out.

One too many X chromosomes apparently makes for a bag of contradictions
... it's why we love'em, right?


This whole thing was pure poetry. It really needs to go on facebook.
hmmmmm..... :-)
