My Junk Drawer.
What is in?
Bits of string, bottle tops, vinegar sprinkler,
(just the top not the whole bottle this slips
inside the next bottle if I've forgotten to get
one with a sprinkler, see?) I haven't the
patience to use a cruet set besides I use
my one egg cup for salt. & pepper comes
with a built in holed shaker/sprinkler top.
Sardine keys, corned beef key, ( these are slot
B thingies where tab A on the tin slips in then
you can kinda screw them open and not like keys
for a keyhole type key and lock. Can opener,
a corkscrew I've never used, fuses for plugs
a screwdriver kit of which I've lost the handle
(these kits are brill they've got loads of
those things for undoing screws in all shapes
and sizes and only £1 but no good without the handle, twats!)
some swizzle sticks, loose pain killers, the packets
long since ripped apart, O god, in frantic haste...
An unused dummy(pacifier) just in case
broken rings, broken pens, pencil stubs, lighters
vape juice (I've long since quit but I'm a ' just in case'er '
*see siege mentality) a tape measure
(the cloth one) half set of measuring spoons.
1 egg cup (usually used for salt, see above)
tin opener different from can opener
cos this punctures to let liquid out the other
one cuts the top of the tin can to get solids out
or is it the other way round?
Plastic bags bread is sold in for reuse as freezer
bags, these get pushed to the back of the drawer
then, inevitably slip through to the kitchen cupboard
underneath, to join up with toothpicks aka cocktail sticks
previous Christmases serviettes, little paper cups for
baking little cakes in and who on earth could truly be bothered...
