Pet Peeves

A few housekeeping-related annoyances

  • Dishes stacked on top of glasses in the sink
  • Dirty utensils sunk deep inside a pot soaking in water
  • Knives left out with food stuck to them
  • Cutting board left out after cutting up avocados - with chunks of avocado dried up and smeared
  • Bowls, mugs, glasses left sitting all over the house
  • Waste of paper towels (we have rags! and tissues! and cloth towels)
  • Shoes, bags, violins, and backpacks left all over the floor and blocking my way
  • People not responding when I ask a question
  • Forgetting that I have bread in the works and the dough over-proofing
  • Making mistakes when mixing ingredients for a recipe that I've done a 1000 times
  • Setting the wrong temperature on the oven
  • The sound on my phone failing to work, so no alarm to wake me up on time!
  • Clean laundry sitting around in baskets (or in the dryer)
And what about you? What's annoying right now?
