I swear there is a tea spoon conspiracy going on. I had 100's of the damn things once, now down to that few that in one day they are all used up!!

and then there is the black hole safe place.....that too is shit!!

teens are the route of much stealing borrowing in the house.

mowial, I know of someone who used to shove toy cars in holes in walls, into the cavities. I have a distinct lack of holes in my house, otherwise I might ponder if mine were doing that.

alas tho, I fear hecate has the answer, and my spoons are going on grand trips to the tip. one day, in many thousands of years, the rubbish dumps will be dug up and the future humans will ponder what type of tools they have unearthed.....they will of course progressed to not needing spoons to make coffee, eat yogs etc, they will think of a food and it will magically appear in front of them and then be absorbed in an osmosis fashion!!

Flamingo - I rarely venture into my son's bedroom either
Wouldn't be so bad but he's in his 20's and never throws anything out.
I sneak in when he's out and do what I can to clean and tidy Blush
Psycho - what is it with little ones shoving things into cavities ???
I'm sure I never did that - but I did used to pick wallpaper Blush

Pyschomum..Or maybe the grand lord of true recycling,will manage to evolve beings who survive on teaspoons!.. See we , by throwing away our teaspoons,are helping future generations!
