My kitchen is also under fire and I've taken to completely re-organize it. Pinterest tells me that all I need are wicker baskets, mason jars, and burlap. I went to IKEA to buy the baskets (which were too big and now I have to return them), Wal-Mart for the mason jars (which don't seem to hold much), and I can't quite figure out what in the world burlap would be used for, but I'm sure I'll find out.
As I'm emptying the cupboards to find out what I'm keeping, tossing, and donating, I realize that I have quite a few Starbucks mugs from my travels - and from everyone else's too.
When I was young I loved CATS. I was easy to buy gifts for. I got cat figurines, cat music boxes, cat books, cat prints, cat calendars, etc. My sister would get cool stuff like pretty hair accessories, necklaces, purses, and such. I got cat magnets. While I still love cats, I've come to realize that, over time, the cat theme has transferred to Starbucks mugs.
Behold my collection and despair!
Now that I'm older and less pissy (cough) I actually appreciate these thoughtful gifts. So, if you ever find yourself in another city or country, please bring me back a regional Starbucks mug to add to my collection. Or a necklace.

As I read this entry and saw the picture I thought to myself "maybe she is going to finally detach from her mugs, wow that is a lot of mugs" and then BAM!!!! nope... you need more mugs :) Starbucks mugs for that matter. If I ever am in the presence of mug that is worth being a part of the collection. I'm buying it.
Just make sure that in 3 years you don't repost this picture saying you're ready to leave these behind like the cats.
LOL - Thanks and I'm pretty sure I'm on a quest to own them all :-)
Behold...and despair...
