This weekend, I did both. I reorganized all of my kitchen cabinets (partly because I found where that fucking mouse had set up house, so I threw everything in that cabinet out...Tupperware, Rubbermaid, canned goods, dish towels...everything) and I spent an exorbitant amount of money on cookware, gadgets, utensils, knives, organizer shelves, dish towels, serving platters and canisters.
It's not like I even cook. It's not that I'm a bad cook, it's just that I don't cook. I blame Alton Brown. He makes it all look so damn fun. I have an uncontrollable desire to fry some chicken.

He looks frightening enough to scare you out of the kitchen forever! I love buying new gadgets, whether kitchen or handyman, that I don't have a clue how to use.
Then, after you get that chicken nice and froze up, send it to me. And you're welcome. I knew you knew that I knew you wanted somewhere to send it.
Alton Brown is my television husband, according to my real husband. :)
What a good excuse for shopping: "I've been visited by a mouse."
All that shopping sounds like fun!!
Poor Laurie, I bet New Orleans misses you too!
George - I can stand forever in the gadget aisle at Bed Bath and Beyond.
Old Horsetail - You got it!
Jen - I knew you would relate. :)
Lorna - I should create a "I've Had a Mouse Buy Me Stuff Shower."
Just... - It was wonderful!
Peg - It's been TWO YEARS!!! That's just wrong.
Wow! Sorry to hear about the New Orleans trip, I hope everything is ok.
I don't blame you threw everything out where that mouse set up. I love buying all that stuff, but I don't organize my own kitchen cabinets anymore. My friend Maria who lives in southern Brazil does, she just does it so much better than I do! Luckily, she'll be visiting in June;-)
Susan - Cool!
Nothing worse than finding where Mickey had been setting up house. It gives me the willies just thinking about it.
Grimm - I was more focused than grossed out. Once I pulled out the garbage bags and rubber gloves, it was Katie bar the door!
