My wife says every family has this drawer. I do not believe every family has this drawer. Do you have this drawer? Do you know a good solution to this drawer?
We have a silverware drawer, organized, maxed out. A sharps drawer, organized, maxed out. Ziplocs, organized, maxed out. Bbq tools and oven mitts, organized, maxed out. But all this shit has no particular category so fuck me right. I gotta have an awkward necessary crap drawer. Maybe I should post all my drawers and crowdsource me some sense into my kitchen.
Every family has this drawer.
We have two of them.
We’ve got 2
Yes, I’m pretty sure everyone has a drawer like that. One thing I’m missing (unless I’m just not looking hard enough) is scissors.
When my daughter was 4, she named it the “Don’t know where go drawer” and that’s how we’ve referred to it since.
I also have a man drawer.
What is the green thing with the white blades?
Yep, this is a junk drawer at its nascent stage.
My mother got into the pampered chef selling bulldonkey when I was young, and despite the dozens of items we got from them, only four really stood out, and she still has three of them. The ice cream scoop (how hard is it to make a shaped chunk of metal, after all), the kitchen shears (which were actually good quality), the slap-chop before there was a slap-chop brand (the one that is now missing/broken), and the kitchen organizer thing for the countertop: pic related. It was great for the longer shaped things, like some of what you have in the drawer. If the drawer bothers you that much, consider something that goes on the countertop or on the wall (or even a hanging pot organizer, which I love above a kitchen island.
Not in my house: We have like, 4 or 5 of that drawer. Between me and my wife we have a shitload of kitchen gadgets and accessories.
Why is it on the top. It should be second or third.
Aaaah, the “As seen on TV”+drawer! Yes we have that one.
I do not have that drawer. Mine is at least twice as full.
Sorry to say, your wife is right. Sorry to say, even if she is wrong she is right.
Dear OP, the only odd thing about your drawer is that your garlic press in in there (unless this is your backup garlic press of course). In our household, we have it in the main cutlery drawer.
BTW, we have several such drawers spread out over our home: one in the kitchen, one in the living room, one in the home office and several in the garage.
Found the dad.
Yeah it’s a thing. I’ve made wood box type things to separate the drawer out and try to keep it slightly organised.
I have three small awkward necessary crap drawers, and my apple slicer doesn’t fit into them. But my kitchen is so small, I call in the galley (facetiously, it’s not actually on a boat).
Every family has a misc. drawer. Staplers, pens, rubber bands, paper clips. Lots of office supplies usually but it often will broaden out to all kinds of random crap.
That one is not exactly what I’d expect in the misc drawer but it’s not totally out of bounds?
