When you have children you learn to let this go. Especially teenage boys who eat anything & everything & never put it back in the correct spot. You will also learn how to hide & hoard like a mother fucker.

no.

you just beat them into submission until they learn the correct way to put shit back.

I am kidding about the beating part.

not about training them into knowing where shit goes.

Or your children will be chips of the OCD block.

Mustard does not belong on eggs.

That is reason for divorce

I have read this four times, and I do not understand what it has to do with the price of tea in China. Is someone putting mustard on eggs?

Out of four I only have 1 like this. Granted 2 are stepchildren & didn't receive proper training. When I first met them they didn't know how to even makeup their beds.

DD1 spent 30 minutes changing the linens and making her bed yesterday until it passed. She was so proud by the time she got it right she face timed my mom to show it to her.

I also label all the drawers and shelves in my house

As long as he's not putting mustard on your eggs, it's OK. AS LONG AS HE PUTS THE MUSTARD BACK WHERE IT BELONGS!

Black currant mustard is delicious but the only condiment that I can accept with eggs is hot sauce. Anything else makes me want to gag

[miniroller]

I have 3 different kinds of mustard: regular, honey Dijon, spicy TJ's. My H HATES mustard, like will gag/puke upon consumption. Onions is his other major food no. Do you guys have any idea how this affects my cooking/ recipe alterations/ making of more than one variety of a dish?!? If anyone should be close to divorce, please trust- it's me!

Somehow I went 30 years without trying hot sauce on eggs. It's so good. I specifically like Sriracha sauce.

I don't really eat mustard. DH does. He puts everything in the wrong place.

Except he seems to have taken an entire large drawer of the fridge for just cheese. I don't think he even actually realizes how much cheese he has in there. I don't eat cheese myself, but it get it for the baby sometimes. It's pretty ridiculous. I would guess there's at least 10lbs in there.

I think I like your husband! Cheese!!!

In Wisconsin, we just call a fridge door with 10 pounds of cheese in it "the cheese drawer." OBVS.

Is there another purpose for this drawer?

What else does that drawer do? There are produce drawers, cheese drawers and little butter shelves. It's a universal truth.

I'm vegan and we still have a cheese drawer. It is the largest drawer of our fridge and it is filled with vegan cheese and vegan sausage when we have it, but definitely mostly vegan cheese.

Oh sweetie. No.

[darnkatz]

I love mustard. We regularly have regular ol' yellow, spicy brown, Dijon, honey, stone ground, and beer. I would fuck my husband's shit up if he reorganized my mustard section.

How about I just drop this here:

I hate mustard. Mustard is fucking gross in all forms.

Well I'm also lactose intolerant, so that's not really a choice anyway.

[gault]

Horseradish mustard is heaven.

[LoveTrains]

Tacos I know I have been pumping stonewall kitchen a lot but their mustard is amazing. They have like a hundred kinds. If you ever go to Maine you should visit their store sample them all.

Their Maine maple champagne mustard is so good.

My fridge doesn't have a cheese drawer, so I bought a Rubbermaid bin to be the holding area for cheese. I have a separate one charcuterie as well.

Also, I am obsessed with the violet mustard from Zingerman's. So good.

[sfy]

If you don't have at least three types of mustard, you're doing it wrong. My husband gets annoyed if we don't have regular yellow mustard, but I forget about it so often, since it's clearly the least important one.

[aprilsails]

Is it a confession that DH and I are condiment addicts? When we moved out of our apartment 7 years ago (23 so it's ok), our friend was helping box up the fridge and he was shocked at the quantity of mustard, salad dressings, hot sauces, etc in the fridge. Our mustard shelf currently houses 10 different varieties. There are at least 7 bbq sauces, 4 mayo varieties, and an additional 12 salad dressings on the go right now.

Our cheese and dip drawer barely closes and it is the full width of the fridge.

Luckily DH himself organized the fridge when we got our new larger one last year. As a result, he chose where everything went the first time, and is now obsessed with keeping it that way. Nothing like presenting organizing the fridge as a puzzle to get a guy excited!

Before you're horrified I do an expiration date sweep quarterly and pretty much everything is usually ok. We seriously go through a lot of mustard.

[tacosforlife]

UPDATE. I came home yesterday and fully expected to see a mustard out of place from lunch since H worked at home yesterday. ALL THE MUSTARDS WERE HAPPILY TOGETHER IN THE MUSTARD SECTION!

I then wanted to throttle my husband for other reasons this morning, but AT LEAST THE MUSTARDS ARE TOGETHER!

I dont like mustard.

I'm glad there are a few of us sensible people who realize mustard is the nastiest stuff.

[Vespasia]

This is only tangentially mustard related but it's a H frustration that I think will fit here.

MH decided yesterday to invite a few people over NYD. He never has anything to do with party planning. I told him it was all on him and asked what he planned to do. His answer: "Buy a 30 pack and defrost a bunch of sausage."

No sides, just sausage. At least we have a wide variety of mustard to serve with the sausage?


(I will make a potato salad at the very least, I have some fingerlings that need to be used up)
