    One thing I've learned in life, and I cannot stress this enough--when you are making a salad you always need a bigger bowl than you think.

    That is a nice family-sized bowl, Pacnor—what do you use as silverware, a pitchfork and scythe?
    …and dressing? No, I won’t go there.

    True words.

    Also the burger bun is always too big or too small. And the number of hot dogs never matches the number of buns.

    In my case it's "stay out of it and leave it to those who know what they are doing."

    The coffee machine is deliberately located on a counter just inside the entrance as it's my responsibility, so I need to go no further in than that and thus "get in the way."

    Tupper ware lids are like socks.... They get eaten in the machines that wash them.

    I know what you mean, Cayu. In fact my Bride has started a campaign to get rid of the dishwasher when it breaks down and make a cabinet in its place. I am not yet onboard, but it is true that we only use it a few times a year for jam and honey jars and after a big meal.

    We don't have Tuppaware.


    We've "Lock n' Lock"
    I find it a problem matching lids to bases.
