My wife says every family has this drawer. I do not believe every family has this drawer. Do you have this drawer? Do you know a good solution to this drawer?

We have a silverware drawer, organized, maxed out. A sharps drawer, organized, maxed out. Ziplocs, organized, maxed out. Bbq tools and oven mitts, organized, maxed out. But all this shit has no particular category so fuck me right. I gotta have an awkward necessary crap drawer. Maybe I should post all my drawers and crowdsource me some sense into my kitchen.

    Every single organization system will fail. When we try to put things into categories, there will always be some things that don’t fit. That is why every organization scheme needs a miscellaneous category. That seems to be the purpose of this drawer, and that’s great.

      I agree In my house we don’t have so many drawers. Just 2 large ones and we’ve basically integrated the miscellaneous sections into the 2. Everything with a knowable home and commonly used in the up front dividers. All else in the rear dividers.
