UGHH if one more of my kitchen tools gets used for

[buddie]

i have given DH all my old measuring cups, spoons, bowls and he continually comes in my area ;) and takes my good stuff to mix chemicals in and stuff.. THIS AGGRAVATES me... my kitchen stuff is for FOOD! not garden or fish stuff!!!

anyone in a similar situation? what do you do

[sassafras]

I had the same problem with DH using measuring cups for spa chemicals, but it was alleviated when I purchased new products for HIM and put them in a rubbermaid container in his workbench.

Maybe if you consolidated in a 'caddy', he'd never come looking for yours?

good idea!

ugh! I feel your pain. It isn't so much the DH as the DD. She is constantly taking measuring spoons and cups, etc for her little "experiments" and leaving them outside-sometimes in ruin. And the biggest gripe is my kitchen scissors. I have a pair that I use on food (such as chicken), a pair to cut paper, and about a jillon pair to cut heavy stuff, cause they keep using the goods ones to cut plastic and cardboard and stuff, so then I can't use them any more to cut paper:mad:

I have this problem, too. DH loves to use measuring cups for dog food (leaves it in the bag) and various other things he does in the garage. Drives me crazy!

Terry, I have the same problem with kitchen shears. I'll get a new pair specifically for the kitchen and I'll walk in to find DH using them to opening up some shrink-wrapped item or cardboard box.

Gotta love him!;)

It's not letting me edit my post....

[buddie]

LOL Janet... i have the same issue about my scissors also... ;)

Which brings up the #1 most repeated phrase from my childhood:

WHO TOOK THE GOOD SCISSORS!??!?!?!!

Man. I'm 41 years old, and just hearing that sentence in my head makes me scrunch down in my chair and feel guilty all over.

Not exactly the same thing, but DBF has got to stop trying (operative word here is trying) to juggle my carefully selected fruits and vegetables. If I see or hear one more dropped tomato or apple...:mad::rolleyes:
