I go through my utensil drawer about once every two years. . .it's the size of the one *under* yours :) I truly look at everything and ask myself if I've used it in the last 6 months. . .the answer is usually "yes". I do keep my hand mixer, grill utensils, candy/meat thermometer, skewers, etc. in there too. I was just noticing this week that I need wooden spoons :) I know this post was about getting rid of things but since most of our family members use the kitchen I try to have what they need on hand. I like your dividers (and solution for getting them in) and may have to do something like that -- with a drawer as big and deep as we use some things do get "lost".<br />Thanks for taking the time to share! It really is the "little" things that make the difference. . .Jennibellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08902786008061968790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-78242327983077504152013-06-27T17:17:08.924-04:002013-06-27T17:17:08.924-04:00We have way too much in the kitchen but since I...We have way too much in the kitchen but since I'm not the cook in the house I don't get rid of utensils.

Now that we have just moved to a new home, I only have 3 drawers in my kitchen so I have to continue to use my crock on the counter - only now I'm on the hunt for a new white one.

I've been gone from home for four weeks now, but the FIRST thing on my to-do list is to get those puppies in. I have an old crock sitting next to my stove for the "essential" tools that I use frequently and a plastic tub in the pantry for the not-so-frequently-used ones. The problem is that once they come out of the plastic tub they get placed in the crock. Now, the crock overfloweth. YIKES! You must do gymnastic twists to get anything in.

I actually have three drawers (narrow) of utensils and a container with some on my counter. Problem is I actually use them. I am anti hoarding but I am a constant cook. I need that zester and herb mincer, and George Forman thingy. Really I do.....but I promise I will get in there and see if there are maybe a few things that can go since you have shown me the light, though I bet I even have sun glasses in there.
