Okay. I admit. This was entirely my fault but it was still annoying.
I read Martha Stewart magazine but it is in a kind of voyeuristic freak show kind of way. It is hard for me to believe that people are actually so clean and organized. I am the anti Martha. I was the kid who had a room that looked like a tornado hit it. When my Mom yelled at me to clean it up, I was the kid who shoved the entire mess into the closet. I’m still that kid.
You would think that any sane person would find room for the scores of cookbooks she owns. Any person who cares about their things would make sure they are at least standing up vertically on the bookshelf. That same rational person would figure out there was a cookbook population problem and make an effort to find a place for the overflow.
Instead… I have a habit of laying the extra books on top of the properly vertically stored books on the shelf (you know where this is going, don’t you?). To make matters worse, I thought it was perfectly acceptable to store my cookbook holder the exact same way. And… are you ready for this? In this same kitchen cupboard where these shelves are, I was storing a bunch of glass items on the floor of the cupboard right in front of the lowest shelf of books.
Yup….
Looks like I need a new cookbook holder…
And if anyone knows where I can get a new lid to my infusion jar, let me know.
Well, I’m not one for New Years resolutions, but I think I need to resolve to be a little tiny bit more Martha. 😳
