Jean's post about Billy being the "Prince of Paraphernalia" made me laugh. I would love to go through his cupboards and see what's hidden in there! As a matter of fact, wouldn't it be fun to have a cupboard tour? You know, like the kitchen tours so popular (around here, at least) at Christmas. You get to stroll through people's kitchens and check ouot the pantries, the fridge, the cabinets and drawers to see what everyone has collected over the years. Because I tend to bake a lot, I have a lot of meas. cups and spoons, bakeware (I recently gave away my collection of charactor cake pans, the baby is almost 20 and now longer needs a Cookie Monster pan) & lots of decorating stuff. I can't resist things like a roux whisk and yes, I use it, little tools for specific chores-mayo jar spatula, for instance, tiny nutmeg graters, retractable pickle jar tongs, you get the picture.
When I moved in with the Picky One, he couldn't understand how I could fill up his large (and almost empty) kitchen and still need storage space. (Why do you need 4 cannisters of white flour??? Where will my Doritoes go??) As a result, I'm a lot more selective these days about cooking stuff, but I've discovered Lowes-this way I can just store it in the garage.
