Junk Drawers
Even Doodads Need a Place
"...a junk drawer is a mysterious and benevolent thing. It giveth you things you occasionally need, and it taketh away things you don't want to look at on a daily basis...the main problem a lot of people have with junk drawers...finding the thing you need. But, for me, that's the very heart of why I love my junk drawer."I love my junk drawer and must have one in my kitchen, no matter what. I don't care if there isn't enough drawer space for other things ... I must have a junk drawer!
And, if I may add another part of this article without stealing the whole thing, let me add this part:
"Above all, a good junk drawer is the drawer of the optimist. It is hope, incarnate. Hope, that I will find that thing I need. Hope that an answer exists for most problems at hand. Hope that I have the right-sized wing nut or some kind of a thingamajig that I can somehow twist or cut or flatten into some kind of a thing-a-ma-dude to prevent the gutter from falling down. Hope that I don't have to run to the hardware store and buy something (sorry Manny) and make a fool of myself in the process by asking for a "thingamadude."I want to shake this writer's hand, I'll tell you.
