Deborah commented on our open-shelving system a few days ago, and for lack of better material, I’ll explain why.
The door to this cupboard wouldn’t close all the way, so I took it off.
Dnag. I thought it would be a better story than that.
Sorry, folks. Tune in next time for more “Boring Ways That Lauren Has Devalued Their Home”! (The next story’s much better.)
Brad says
What was almost done cooking in the microwave?
Lauren says
Those numbers are left over from something I heated up earlier in the day. I never let anything finish in the microwave. I like to get there in time to stop it with just seconds left -- no matter where I am in the house. It’s good training for my future career as a spy/adventurer.
Curt says
Were you cooking some spam (can on top of the microwave. I figured someone would have commented on it, since your fans are so observant.)? Mmmm…I love spam. Fried is my favorite.
Lauren says
That Spam is purely decorative. Maybe we’ll fry it up when Brad’s here -- we’ll have a Spam party!
Karla says
Make sure you sing the Spam Song at the Spam party.

Lauren says
Our Spam is from that museum! (At least that’s what Brad tells us.)
Beth says
Will it be the story about the cat “door” in your basement door? That really is a good one :D!
Lloyd says
I mostly blame John Glanzer for that.
Annette says
Is that a new flavor of ale?
Meredith says
Haha, great story!
I love the way open shelving looks in others’ homes but I think my shelves would attack if I left them open like that! I’m a shove and run type of girl. 😀
Deanne says
Well, I can’t imagine that a (nice-looking, I must say) lack of a door is going to devalue your house more than the simple cost of the door. Were you to take away a bathroom, then you’d be looking at some value subtraction. But hey! You’re not selling anyway, so everything is ADDED value to you, because it’s your ease of use!
Kristi says
Did you take the door off your medicine cabinet? (Seinfeld) That eliminates the need for people to snoop. They can easily see what drugs you consume.
Michele says
Peggy -- get Brad to post the picture of that awesome cabinet you saw in Italy. There’s a whole other world out there in cabinet design!
Peggy says
ROFLMAO! (That’s a new vocabulary word I just learned …)
Seriously, I love your one sentence story. It cracked me up to see that’s all there was! HAHAHAHA!! Excellent!
Brad says
Whenever I see that string of letters, I always want to say them like a word. “Roffel-maow” Then I start thinking about this movie:

Then I can’t get the song out of my head.
Deborah says
Ok, I can’t figure it out. What does ROFLMAO mean?
Lauren says
Rolling on the floor laughing my avocado off.
Deborah says
Thanks!
Lloyd says
Now that’s funny. Yep, funny, funny stuff there. Geeky too. I also like that alot. Yes, definitely both geeky and funny.
