My sister in law habitually leaves milk, open jam/peanut butter jars, cooked food etc... out on the counter for hours after taking it out of the fridge to make a sandwich etc...
Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions

    when my girlfriend is making diner and and i come in the kitchen while shes cutting onions, i usely just leave unless she says "honey will you cut the onions for me" arghhhhh!!!!!
    I'll be in the neighborhood later on, and I was wondering if maybe you wanted to get some frozen yogurt, or perhaps a whole meal of food, if that would be agreeable. Damnit.

    Make spills and not wipe the counter off.

    or leave bread crumbs on the counter

    not emptying the sink drain

    not wipe up around the sink after rinsing dishes

    leave fruits and veggies out too long and let them get too old, wilted or squishy

    I am almost to the point where I'm so worried about food poisoning that that I hate eating at other people's houses!

    I almost fainted at the dinner table when my father in-law said how thawed the turkey.

    My great aunt used to smoke while she cooked! :eek:

    And no ashtray in sight either!!! :eek:

    I used to sit there while she cooked, my eyes following her every move, watching her cigarette ash getting longer and longer as it hung from the filter, waiting for it to fall into the dinner, but it never did! Least not that I saw anyway! And believe me I watched her every move! :D
    NOPE!!!

    Omg, I can't stand the thought of anyone smoking in the kitchen much less while cooking. The smoke settles on everything...so GROSS! I can't believe I forgot this one...my mother used to make me cringe daily doing this.

    when people leave bread crumbs on the counter and don't clean them. when they leave cups and utensils in the sink and leave them for a long time. when they spill some jelly on the counter and don't clean it. when it's there turn to wash dishes yet don't clean the stove. when they don't close the zip-lock bag with the deli turkey in it. when they don't use the tie-wraps that come with the bagels or the bread and just leave them out while the bread is open and in the fridge.


    when I think of more I'll post.

    haha! :D Yeah, it was different times I guess! I think I'd fall over in shock if I saw it now but remembering back I always marvelled at how she managed not to drop ash everywhere and she'd be moving about, stirring, chopping, talking and everything. :)
    NOPE!!!

    I am such a kitchen Nazi. If you can't hold a chef's knife properly, you are not allowed to work in my kitchen. But I prefer to do all the cooking myself anyway. It makes me happy to prepare meals for people I care about.

    I think it is disgusting when people don't rinse their dishes before putting them in the sink.
    Also, I am a big fan of shaking a drink before pouring it, i.e. oj, milk, other juice, even water. My husband is apparently an even bigger fan of never ever screwing the caps back on drink containers, so I am now doomed to a life of stopping my natural instincts in order to check said cap. Of course, there are those ever-so-pleasant mornings where nature wins and the fluid hits the floor.
    That really boils my ass.
    Stop following me, I do not know where I am going.

    why does your peanut butter live in the fridge? mine lives in the pantry. consequently it does get left on the bench for hours sometimes.
    hear my name
    take a good look

    I can't help but point out that most of these annoyances practically disappear when one has the good fortune to live alone! :D

    But for the sake of thread integrity, I don't like it when people in the kitchen...

    ask me to cook anything. :)

    Okay, it also kinda bugs me when people stack dirty plates with utensils in between. God gave us plates that stack so perfectly together - don't screw it up with your dirty fork! (Well, that's only a really minor irritant, but I felt pressured to think of something to say to keep on topic. :D )

    people that let their cats up on the counter to wander around, rub their butts all over the place, sniff and lick everything they see and then they prepare food there. talk about grossness of the mostness.

    disgusting.
