Little Victories - Day 13

I am a black hole for plastic food containers.  Bree and I are constantly looking for matching bowls and lids to store leftovers, sauces, etc... but we are never successful.

We can find a bottom piece.  Or we can find a top piece.  But they never seem to match.  And then we buy more.  And for a while, it's good.  But it all gets mixed into the old stuff and guess what happens.

We lose vital parts again.

The cycle is vicious and never-ending.  We've got two full boxes of plastic containers in the closet and a number of loose ones floating around.

At least... we did.

Today, we went to IKEA with a friend.  On that trip, we picked up a few packs of plastic containers, came home, and threw the old ones away.  Now, all we have are complete pairs.

Also, in a bonus little victory... I finally through away an old, tube-style TV Bree salvaged parts from. It had been sitting in the living room for months.  But as of today... NO MORE.  It's gone now.

Little victories.  352 to go and still going strong.
