Hi Camille,
Thank you, I'm glad we decided to take this one with us to our current home. I will share furniture stories next time of the treasured items we had lost in the typhoon.
As far as I am concerned, there are only two things to do with dirty utensils: wash them or throw them away.
Haha, yes wash them or throw them away. That's something I remember clearly well, you always had a clean kitchen counter and floors. Everywhere in fact. I do follow your tip on carrots preservation whenever we purchased more than planned. Looking forward to reading your views and experiences on the connections and minimalism's impact on work-life duties and responsibilities. Happy Tuesday!
