curiously cleaning.......

ok, so....since i got up this morning, i have cleaned out the space under the sink in my jacuzzi bathroom.....which was an unruly pile of partially filled bath products......i have consolidated as many as possible, and cleaned out the remaining containers for recycling.....and as a result, it is obvious that i am due a trip to marshall's to replenish my supplies.....i also cleaned the under-counter lazy susan where the baking supplies are kept.....i found no fewer than 3 partially-filled containers of white vinegar....and 2 partially used jars of caro syrup....no idea why i bought another when i only used the first one time...and no idea what i used it in...as caro syrup is not something i use frequently......note to self- find recipes that use caro syrup so i can use it up and be done with it.....i also cleaned out my bill bin that sits on the kitchen counter...i was looking for a pad of checks...and by the time i was done i had a pile of discardable paper, receipts, and the like.....i suppose the cleaning is to fill space that was recently devoted to planning and packing.....i would say that i am doing these small chores to keep from eating....but i will admit to treating myself to a very small batch of potato latkes this morning.....the potato was on the shelf in the fridge, and using it seemed like a better idea than dropping it in the bottom drawer with its mates......
