Me: So the Internets evidently think we’re slobs.
Snook: Huh? Oh, you mean those random comments?
Me: Yeah.
Snook: What the hell was that about? It looks good! Some people have frickin’ OCD.
Me: Seriously. I was thinking it looked pretty tidy, myself.
Snook: Most of the time we have empty wine bottles all over the place!
Me: Remember that time we had a bottle of maple syrup on the coffee table for, like, a month?
Both of us: Mmm…. pancakes.

While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown.

We had a bottle of beer stuck to the bottom of the fridge with maple syrup. For a ten months.
Ignore the neat freak troll. Your living room looked cozy and nice.
Crumpet, the fridge is my nemesis. I’ve discovered year-old leftovers before. It’s times like those I’m thankful God created Gladware. 😉
You live there!!! Not everyone lives in a show room!!!
Thank goodness
I wouldnt worry about it – and besides, IVAR is open storage, you’re gonna see everything…. (try making that stuff look neat and clean in an Ikea showroom :P).. your place is neater than mine.
People always have crap to say about other people when they have their own issues. I agree with Marci, ignore the Neatness Police…your place needs to be a place where YOU find relaxation, not a place to win a frickin’ interior design award. Who wants to live in a totally sterile environment anyway?
Crumpet and Marci –
I am afraid of the things stuck to the bottom of my fridge too. I am so thankful for disposable storage!
