Day 2 dawns.
Our heroine receives her orders: organize and sort.
She can do that.
Suggested categories: Keep ... Donate ... Toxic Waste (as defined by expiration dates and smell tests).
Then there are the Unidentifiables: mystery kitchen gadgets rescued from dark, dusty corners of drawers.
Eating patterns emerge from the count of Known Items:
lemon zester - 0
colander - 1
pizza cutters - 2
ice cream scoopers - 5
microwave-safe containers - as many as it takes
chip clips - she doesn’t want to talk about it.
The in-kitchen dining table has joined the formal dining table out in the living room. Both surfaces are needed to hold all the Keeps, a.k.a. Can't Part Withs. Good husband Michael positions the added table just right, with enough room for their his-and-her recliners to still lay back unchallenged. Priorities.
All in all, a productive second round; our heroine has survived to eat out another day.
Tune in for tomorrow's next exciting installment: You Want to Put the Refrigerator Where?
