    Have just been to Tesco's and was tempted by a burger press. For 3 seconds, laughed at myself and went to play with the Minions instead.

    Does anyone own a burger press? Or did they all get Kondoed?

    I have a burger press, it's staying :p
    When I did my clothes I kept a top that I liked and wore a lot last year. I got it out to wear at the weekend and thought "that looks awful on me". Did it really look that awful on me last summer or have I changed shape or something? Is it just me that does this?

    I did that today!! A t shirt I wore when I was much heavier now looks just dreadful. It has gone in a bag through the door bag, together with OH and mine cordless dressing gowns, some scarves I decided are really scruffy and others that were mums but don't really do anything for me. And a couple of long sleeved but too short t shirts. Which means my long sleeved top drawer now has wiggle room.
    I wanna be in the room where it happens

    anyone else have a mental double-take when reading this? I know I'm short of sleep, but I found myself wondering how these differ from the plug-in version! :rotfl:

    I, too, have a burger press! :D


    I don't have an egg slicer, though - I slice my eggs when cold with a paring knife :D

    Another Kondo-less day but reading all your posts keeps my spirits up! Slowly working my way through folding and putting away the laundry and being aware of whether each item warrants a space in the drawer or wardrobe. Having a few days off work mid-August and plan to get back on track with the categories then. Note to self - start taking ginseng for strength now! LOL
    Looking ahead

    LOVE my burger press, use it all the time in the summer. But the lakeland one isn't as good as this one

    Can't find it now but someone a few posts back was unsure about spelling stationary/stationery. My way of remembering it is if you are stationAry you Aren't going anywhere
    It doesn't matter if you are a glass half full or half empty sort of person. Keep it topped up! Cheers!

    I was always taught stationEry = envelope.

    Not fair! Now I want one, together with the Italian meatball press that Amarzon say other people buy with it. :rotfl:

    I have actually wanted one for ages as I want to batch make lentil, bean and veggie burgers for the freezer. Decisions, decisions. Tell me when will you be mine, Or Kondo Kondo Kondo Kondo-on-doh. That is so cheap though. :D
