My wife says every family has this drawer. I do not believe every family has this drawer. Do you have this drawer? Do you know a good solution to this drawer?

We have a silverware drawer, organized, maxed out. A sharps drawer, organized, maxed out. Ziplocs, organized, maxed out. Bbq tools and oven mitts, organized, maxed out. But all this shit has no particular category so fuck me right. I gotta have an awkward necessary crap drawer. Maybe I should post all my drawers and crowdsource me some sense into my kitchen.

To an extent, we always had a junk drawer. Over the years it got smaller and more organized. Utinsels have an actual drawer for them all. So no pizza cutter in our junk drawer anymore. Almost everything in your picture has a spot for us.

Here's our junk drawer now.

Put a lid on that Crayola marker, you savage!

[-] Aermis@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

I've thrown so many markers away because the kids just get to them and lose the lids.

Of course after drawing on any surface they can find first.

Yours is a nice junk drawer. It's like their junk drawer combines a baking drawer also. And the pizza cutter should probably go in their sharps drawer.
