She's the most anti-clutter thing I've ever met. I didn't inherit the gene. Scares the hubby everytime tho as he never can find anything for months afterwards. Can you say creature of habit? One time he told her to "go for it! Just don't move my peanut butter." So the whole time she was visiting she'd buy a different brand of p'nut butter whenever we'd go somewhere. Just before she left she cut out giant arrows out of florescent paper and taped them to the peanut butter shelf all pointing to his precious peanut butter collection. He opened the cupboard that morning and was greeted by 15 jars and ten huge orange arrows. Laughed our heads off! It’s a whole lot easier to get my sis here and let her loose.

But your idea is probably more practical. If you're interested, I’m giving away free bakeware on my blog.

No, he didn't have an eating disorder, but wanted to keep paper clutter at the office to a minimum. Anyway, I've never forgotten that so I have an "urge to purge" my house every season. Getting rid of clutter just makes everything go smoother!
