Multiplying faster than bunnies.....

Does anyone else have a stack that looks like this? Well, maybe you won’t confess it, but I feel confident there are many drawers and cabinets that look like this. How can these things multiply? It seems like I have tried to throw odd pieces away, but then when I need something for a quick lunch or for storing non-food items, they do come in handy. So many of these bowls, especially round ones look the same, but not, even the same brand such as Rubbermaid or Ziploc. Today –that changes. I am going to literally toss most of these away and buy sets. I hate to have to try on 3 tops before finding the right one. Lots are marked but many more aren’t. Maybe part of the saving aspect is thinking about the money you save to reuse these items instead of new ones. Well, for about .50 each, I would rather think I’m going to save more time and frustration than money. Some will go to the garage for upcoming projects as they do come in handy when sorting small items. Or, as “legs” for spray painting items since a few canned items have often had a light coat of spray paint on them. This is just step one of some major organizing that is going to happen on Shadyway Lane – SOON.
