I mean it at least forces you to do your dishes
That would make sense, it’s the only ones iv ever bought so I wouldn’t know
It’s all he needs
We’re a family of three with a 19 year old, so our cutlery drawer looks just like this unless we ask him to bring all the dishes from his room.
HAHA TEENAGERS AMIRITE
F’realz
Been there done that
He never has dishes
lol two spoons and a fork, what a waste. i only use one spoon for everything.
edit: ooh i get it now, they have a significant other who sometimes visits. (big spoon, small spoon)
Is your friend Bill Dauterive?
No pie server - what kind of barbarian is this?
They live alone, why have a pie server if you are just gonna eat it yourself?
I made a cake last night to get rid of a few eggs. Realized I am slipping back into batchelor life when I just put the whole thing on a plate, put one utensil on it, And put the whole thing back in the fridge. Healthy… probably not … any of it. But not having to look for a clean utensil every time is nice. The sad part is it was a spoon I grabbed, not because I thought it would double for ice cream if I wanted some… But because it was closer
And yet, to get rid of a few eggs you made cake, where others would just make eggs. We are not worthy!!!
I have my own hens out back… So I give away a dozen to my neighbors weekly, on either side because they free roam and I have to many Currently about 4 dozen on the counter. Messier than usual, started a new job working far away and a lot more hard labor than I’m used to, so I’ve basically done fuck all to keep things managed around here as I get into a routine. Thankfully when you are 1 person, you only have to clean 1 pot, 1 fork, and 1 plate usually. (Edit: forgot to add, 1 good silicone/rubber/? Hybrid temperature resistant spoon, I always hated the plastic ones and visited my mother a year ago and she had them, just place it over the top of the pot no matter how hot, no issues. Worried about sauce getting on the stove, just leave the fucker in the pot, not sure what it’s made of, but I intend to reuse it till I die and hopefully pass the fucker on so it doesn’t go in a ditch)
Holy crap, if I had that many eggs I’d probably eat eggs benedict with hollandaise every morning - cholesterol be damned!
Where do you live /s
As long as it isn’t a sink full of nasty dishes, and a PC surrounded by plates, cups, and empty cans, you are good.
For when that special someone comes over. Of course if you have a special someone you’d have 2 sets of silverware. Okay I see the point.
They are more likely to be just eating the whole pie in one sitting, too.
I did that a few times - not in one sitting but just eating pie as my only food for a couple days (I’m not a big eater). I remember standing in line at Albertson’s in my early 20s, seeing a rack of peach pies and suddenly realizing I could just buy one for myself. I was an adult. I could get a whole pie and eat as much of it as I wanted. Another time I ate almost nothing but Cap’n Crunch all weekend. A friend of mine had a summer job at a pizza place where she got to take home one pizza per day. She put them in her freezer and lived on pizza all summer, zero grocery expenses.
Oh, I have had more than one “I am gonna just sit here and eat this whole thing” nights.
Did they borrow these from a restaurant. I just find it more menacing to just buy 1 of each, searched online and I can’t find a single reasonably priced utensil set that only sells 1 of each in the set.
Dollar stores sell singles
2 words: Thrift. Shop.
Walmart sometimes sells utensils individually in store, they’re loose in bins with a little plastic price barcode attached
In some Europe countries the all Chinese shops offer that option
you can honestly get by with just a spoon. need a butter knife? use the spoon handle. need to jab something? just scoop it instead. need to cut something? just cook it a little more so it gets soft
Excuse me, it goes: Fork->Knife->Spoon->tea spoon.
I don’t know what this is but it’s certainly not in keeping with the lord’s way.
Right chopstick -> left chopstick -> porcelain soup spoon -> packets of unused plastic foldable forks that came with the instant noodles
God, I love Asian soup apoons!
Me too, the shape is just so perfect for so many things. I bought some recently at the Vietnamese market nearby. They have fancy little roses surrounded by a filigree pattern printed on them and say “English” on the handle in some Victorian-looking cursive font lmao. I love them.
Do chopsticks have an orientation?
Yes, but their orientation is none of your business.
Yeah just like Twix.
does the left chopstick also taste better?
Finnish mnemonic: Haaveilu. Haarukka=fork, veitsi=knife, lusikka=spoon.
Haaveilu=daydreaming, reverie
Personally, I prefer dessert spoon, fork, knife, then tea spoon.
What the actual fuck!? The knives always go on the outside, far left or far right.
You cannot convince me this man is not a serial killer.
OP is a fancy one with their actual silverware. When i was a bachelor, it was box of plastic forks, box of plastic spoons, and box of plastic knives.
Saving up for singular silverware would probably save you money in the long run
it’s not even silver, more like stainless steel around here.
Same here. My poitn being you can get a fork knife and spoon for under 5 bucks. Saves on the single use cutlery.
I usually get them from take out places or the cafeteria. Never bought any single use items during my bachelor years.
And less microplastics
And less trash to take care of.
I’ve got 2 of everything just in case. Dirty dishes can’t pile up if they don’t exist.
You underestimate some of us
You underestimate yourself. You’ll get this.
I was given so much stuff when I bought my house. My one aunt had a shopping addiction and just gave me all of the kitchen shit. I live alon and my house is too small and laid out too weird for me to comfortably have guests. Idk what to do with everything, so it just stays in a cabinet. I don’t want to throw it out because it’s nice, but I have no use for it
I have a giant stack of plates. So they can go into the dish washer after I use them. Same thing with boxer shorts and the laundry.
Also to support any surprise guests!
