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.
We’ve got 2
Don’t known, but that big green thing with the clamping white blades…do not put your dick in that.
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.
Every family has a junk drawer. Just accept it and move on in your life.
I see enough squish things tools to designate it the squishing drawer.
We do not have that drawer. My kitchen is tiny and only has 2 drawers. As a result, our entire apartment is a mess
It’s called a junk drawer and as far as I am aware it’s an inevitability. However, I will say it’s odd that you have utensils in there. Most junk drawers I’ve encountered are filled with random crap that rarely if ever gets used.
We have this drawer. Full of kitchen utensils that don’t fit nicely into other drawers.
My parents did not have this drawer. Or at least, not nearly to this extent. Idk how they did it with a smaller kitchen than we have.
I have to sat that the additional of a scale to that drawer is a wild choice
I am ridiculously organized and clean. I do that 5 minutes of swift pickup/wipe a few times each day.
That said, still have this drawer. There is always a collection of items that don’t seem to go “together” but they’re always used. That’s what this drawer is for.
I don’t get the stock picture though. It’s an obvious arrangement of tools that haven’t even been used.
Why is it on the top. It should be second or third.
Your wife is right mate, this drawer is what makes a house a home.
What is the green thing with the white blades?
If you already have a maxed out sharps drawer, then you probably don’t actually need any of the knives in this drawer. Like how often do you actually use the pizza cutter? I just cut pizza with a chef knife. Or the egg cutter? How often is that used? Sometimes the answer is to go through all your drawers and see what can be tossed to make space for the things you actually do use.
I also don’t have that drawer, but I have a box next to the toolbox labeled “useful crap that aren’t tools”
First thing I’d do is recycle that stupid plastic whatsit and the egg slicer that got used once.
