Night of the Living Tupperware.

We all have had it...that dreaded moment when you have to find the one round lid in your mountain of tupperware.

Step 1: Search for lid by fishing your hand through all the tupperware, careful not to knock over the tower, using only your sense of touch, since you can't see what's back there anyway.

Step 2: Decide, since you can't find the round top, maybe you should just put it in a square dish, since you do have like 100 square tops...which by they way, none of which fit the bottom you have found  either.

Step 3: Search harder and faster...

Step 4: Protect your head when it all comes flying down. Warn dogs to take cover, fast!

Step 5: Sort all the lids and bottoms, find a match (usually not your initial choice, but who cares if you use your biggest tupperware for only five greenbeans, or if you have to eat more chicken to get it to fit in the small one.)

Step 6: Put it all away, even though you realize there are exponentially six times more tops than bottoms.

Step 7: Repeat in a few more days...this time when you empty the dishwasher and have to figure out how to put it all back in.

what my cabinet really looks like...
