Okay, i've been working on cleaning up the mail/paper mess that has accumulated on my kitchen counters in the past two weeks. I've made a big dent, but I'm not home free on that one yet. Now as to the cabinet over my built-in refrigerator: it contains: a hot or cold herbal body wrap (This cabinet is the nearest storage to the microwave and freezer that are required for its use.), a 10-piece Silicone bakeware set that I bought two years ago and have yet to use (Actually, until I looked in the cabinet, I had forgotten that I had bought it. I try to use it during the upcoming holiday season.), an empty wood block for my knife set that has been replaced by the built-in knife drawer in my new kitchen (Don't know why I am keeping it.), a large ceramic pitcher that I often use to hold a bouquet of fresh flowers on the kitchen counter in the spring and summer (It's the only cabinet that has enough height to store it.), and a chipped lefse turner that my uncle made and that I will keep in his memory forever (Lefse is the Norweigian soft flat bread made from riced potatoes that I no longer make since I found a wonderful online source). I don't think that is too bad after all it is a storage cabinet!
