Spring Cleaning in the Winter

In typical “me” fashion, I stayed awake until 1:30 Monday night cleaning. (What did YOU did with YOUR Monday night!? Bet it didn't involve 71/2 packets of taco seasoning or finding an old piece of popcorn in your underwear drawer!! -- unless you're Christine, in which case it probably did)

I don’t know how or why it happens but I swear I get a “Cleaning High” where it just feels so good that I can’t stop, nothing can be too clean, and things like eating and sleeping become inconsequential (thanks mom for these genes and thanks dad for the “ill do it later” genes that inevitably lead to the build up of mess/dust/dirt/things that need to be cleaned at 1:30 in the morning)


Fun things I found while cleaning out my kitchen shelf:

• 6 boxes of vegetable broth
• 12 packets of popcorn. I kept pulling out box after box... so I wrapped one and gave it to the Christine mentioned above. She was thrilled and ate some for breakfast.
• 4 cans of organic black beans, 1 can of "Cuban Style!" black beans
• 8 cans of corn........ ?
• 1/4 of a Heath Bar 
• a chocolate easter bunny and 9 stale yellow peeps
• 3 large cans + 1 small can of crushed tomatoes........?
• 7.5 packets of taco seasoning
• some forgotten indian food

y2k syndrome strikes again!!
