There are some savages out there who, believe it or not, put their toasters AWAY in a CUPBOARD, EVERY SINGLE TIME after they use it. I have resolved that I will never again share a house with such a demented person if I ever have a choice about it
๐๏ธ Owning up to savagery here. Although mine goes in a drawer. As does my kettle.
I'd report you to the mods, but now I sit in horror as I wonder what community I've signed up to. ๐ฑ
The sort of communtiy moderated by someone with a small kitchen paired with a love of cooking and preserving ๐คฃ
As it is the sink and stove are often called on for extra bench space and the spare bedroom doubles as a pantry.
Kettle? Kettle! Do you empty it first ??????
No, although it rarely has much water left in it. It's a stovetop kettle, with a nifty folding handle so it does not take up much space. It generally does stay on the stove until I need to heat something else and need the space, which is most days.
That is no way to live. Putting toasters away, pfft! Do they also iron their underwear?
They live amongst us, having no hand soap in the kitchen because "you should only wash your hands in the bathroom". Unsettling.
Will dob you in immediately to the firies - toasters and electric blankets and unaccompanied candles are the 3 main causes of house fires apparently. And the firies are completely over it. If they had their way, they'd ban candles, toasters and electric blankets from sale. I can see their point.
I do keep all candles on my person to keep them companied.
Absolutely. You should call 000 now and report them.
