Gradually, slowly, bit by bit, I am decluttering the kitchen.
It's not easy because I have to enlist the help of friends to reach some
places but I am getting the feeling that I am winning.
However, there is one cupboard, a corner cupboard, which still has
to be tackled and the next willing friend to come around is going to be very
unlucky. In that cupboard is a hotbed of
iniquity and immorality. It is the cupboard
where I store my storage tubs.
I
save all sorts of recyclables to reuse as freezer and fridge containers. I wash them carefully and put them away but
tubs breed. What’s more, because they
are creatures of no restraint, the resultant offspring are totally unpredictable
and lids and tubs are produced which bear little relationship to each other.
Whilst
my views on many things are liberal I find this sort of activity in my kitchen
cupboards totally unacceptable and I have therefore decided to come the heavy
and impose restraints. No longer are
unmarried tubs and lids allowed into the cupboard. They have to be stored complete or not at all.
I have this problem too - do all the lids run off together in search of some sort of plastic utopia?
ReplyDeleteThat is very funny!
ReplyDeleteThat made me giggle! I, too, decided when we began the moving process to do the same with my jam jars and lids. Too many living under the broom handle in a corner cupboard where they thought nobody was looking. Be righteous and upstanding with them and don't give in to young love!
ReplyDeleteHahaha. I sorted out my storage tubs a few weeks ago. I think mine had been using contraception though, as there weren't too many!
ReplyDeleteHa ha ha!!
DeleteWhere do the lids go to? I gave pots but no lids. I know I saved them carefully together and then as soon as I need one it's gone walkabout
ReplyDeleteLOVE IT!!!
ReplyDeleteyes, I threw most of mine away and the ones I kept still can't behave!
