"Don't let a suitcase full of cheese become your big fork and spoon"

I just realized I am engaged in a war.

Ok, well maybe it's not a full scale war, but certainly at least it earns the label of petty-battle-wife-must-win.

Anyone remember that episode of Everybody Loves Raymond with the suitcase of cheese and the big fork and spoon? Ray and Debra both refuse to put up the suitcase that RAY left out, so Ray (in his manly wisdom) put smelly cheese in the suitcase to teach Debra a lesson. Marie decided to give some advice to Debra and tells her that the big fork and spoon that hang in her kitchen have been left there for like 40 years and they both refuse to take them down.

Her advice to Debra? Don't let a suitcase full of cheese become your big fork and spoon.

Back to me. So hubs installed a new stove yesterday in my kitchen! How exciting! Until this morning when I walked into my kitchen.

Just remember, Marie can't take them down because over time, the sunlight has faded the wall paper and now there are permanent markings of the big fork and spoon!

Love it! You're too funny! Maybe you can convince your new cleaning lady to do it considering that she's not biased.

Haha. That's too funny! Maybe you can recruit your new cleaning lady to empty it considering that she's not biased.
