If a mug has a handle pointing out at a 45 degree angle from the back, when you grab the front of the mug and pull, the handle will scoop out the next mug. Then you'll be running for the broom or hollering for help if you are in your bare feet. Also, for the newby, opening and opening all the blankety-blank cupboard doors to find a saucer is annoying. The church that I work at has at least 30 cupboard doors so finding things can be a protracted business. You know that the saucer will be behind door number 29.

Everytime somebody breaks one I cheer but it will take ages to break them all at this rate...those cupboards on the wall are beginning to look a little ...oh dear they have all fallen down...

Starting with moving the handles on all of those white coffee cups. Our parish kitchen might be a bit of a mess, but at least it has some SOUL left in it. But, seriously. I'd love it if someone could come up with an idea of how to keep cooking utensils organized. For home as well as church. They start out not soooo bad, but it takes very little time before they're mess. That's why I always take my own knives (wrapped in an old dish/tea towel) when I work at the church. Bad knives, if you can even find any in the jumble inside deep drawers. These photos and the taped-up instructions kinda make me want to go into that kitchen and rearrange EVERYthing.

I encourage the sticking-up of the cartoon in church kitchens. Vicarvernon - I agree. Simon - They are indeed. Yes, I am on royalties for tea towels so I do benefit if people buy them.
