I’ve been doing a little house cleaning lately and trying to “streamline” my stuff. In other words, get rid of the junk and keep only the essentials. That’s much easier said than done. I tend to be what some people call a pack-rat, but what I would prefer to call a “saver of mementos”. I’m not even sure why I keep some of the stuff I save, but I’m sure that I’ll find a use for it as soon as it’s made its way to either Goodwill or the dumpster. Right?

I finally parted with all the wine bottles I had been keeping above the cabinets. It seemed like a good idea at one time, but now…. not so much. Look at all those bottles!

I thought it would be acceptable to keep the corks and put them in a big apothecary jar. I feel much better about the whole thing and I’m sure people that come over will be less likely to think I’m a heavy drinker. Streamlining is a good thing!
