Bigmouth generally does all the cooking at our establishment; but with the outlaw/inlaws paying a visit last weekend, CB wanted to make an impression. So she went out to the kitchen to rattle those pots and pans.

This is largely unexplored territory to her, so it wasn’t long before the call came forth: “where are the oven trays?” My reply being: “check the oven”.

Now this was subject to great scorn be poured upon Bigmouth from all quarters: ”The oven? What an odd place to store unused oven trays? Only you would do such a thing.” But I’m sure this idea is the product of folklore handed down from generation to generation - back from an era when the best remedy to prevent rust on older-style baking trays was to have then dry in a cooling oven.

So this little domestic incident prompts today’s question: in a tight kitchen where space is a premium, do you find similar solutions for storage? Or is Bigmouth truly the odd-man-out?
