Can't find what I'm looking for !
« on: March 01, 2018, 09:23:24 am »
It makes me so mad to look for something I know I have in my kitchen and not be able to find it.  Does that ever happen to you?  My son made sausage gravy this morning and I know I have red pepper which we like to sprinkle on it.  IN FACT I am sure we had a small one and a bigger one but I couldn't find any !  Oh well it was still good but felt like it was missing something.

I hate that! And sometimes whatever you're trying to find turned out to be under your nose the entire time. D'oh!

I like to sprinkle Tajin on stuff often enough I keep a bottle on the table all the time.

For the curious: https://www.google.com/search?q=tajin&rlz=1C1CHBD_enUS734US734&oq=tajin&aqs=chrome..69i57.2551j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

It seems like it shows up as soon as you do not need it.  It is close to lunch time here and sausage gravy with biscuits sounds good.

My roommate steals my Tupperware. He doesn't even ask. I find myself buying new Tupperware on a regular basis, and it disappears, or, worse yet, he only takes a small part of it like a lid. So then I have Tupperware with no lid. It grinds my gears.

It happens to me all the time, I go to look for something I need and it is not where it is suppose to be, But bless hubby's heart he will put things up after the dishes are done and  always puts it where he thinks it goes and then I have to go looking for it.  All of my spices are kept in one place and  I have a lot as I cook with a lot as I use no salt and need  things to taste good. He leaves all of them alone except for a few he likes to use and they are always kept in the same spot also just for him.

I am happy to see I am not alone.  :-[ I lose things all the time and then find them later after the fact. UGH! It's a pain getting old lol

I hate when someone put things away in my kitchen especially the spices.  I arrange them alphabetically so they are easy to find but they are never put back the right way.

    Your kitchen organizing skills are forked up to say the least,maybe you should spoon the fridge and it'll tell you where the forking knives are.

My hubby is always moving things around and he don't even cook so I often go on a search and rescue.  I always tell him to rearrange his own things but he never listens. Got to love him.
