also - surely if its wood...and you're putting damp, (sometimes hot) things in it to dry then closing the doors.. surely that creates a worrying mould problem? build up of moisture and all that because they arent airing properly..?
On smaller kitchens you just leave the dishes there, as its where you keep the dishes. Also it doesnt have a bottom so the water just drips to the sink. It takes about the same time to dry there then it would on open air. You get mould problems when water goes to places where it cant dry out, which isn't the case. Also since virtually every apartment here has one, even the ones that use dishwashers, we just don't place the sink in front of windows :P

I was thinking something in the line of that:
http://www.rakentaja.fi/kuvat/esitykset/1262/17358102_2009723145752.jpg I'm kinda terrible too. In the past 2 years I've constantly trying to rearrange stuff (few months ago i cleaned and organized the cellar for like 4 times to get more stuff in). I've figured that its easier to keep the house clean if the stuff are in their logical places. Like where i use them. So any stuff i rarely need either go to the attic or cellar. I've also bought loads of clear plastic boxes, so when i actually need something i can see it without taking everything out.

The rest of the walls in the house are painted though. Every apt. u rent here will always come with white walls or ceilings b/c in most contracts it states that ppl moving out have to make sure that everything is as they received it, including the white walls so they won't get penalized for it.
Ah that enplanes it. Its the same here, except that most people like the white walls here and don't paint them :P

What the **** is that! That's completely sci-fi looking, if the walls weren't white I might like it a bit more ;P It is organized, but I have the same problem as Lat.. I wouldn't put everything back right, I'd just get lazy and put shit in the easiest, majority of the time, least organized way.

I can't believe a forum of mostly men are discussing the best way to wash/dry dishes.
What happened to you guys?

lol I have to agree. I thought that conversation got a little more detailed than necessary.
I've had the same single plate and set of chop sticks for 6 months. Miracle I haven't been hospitalized for some bacterial infection.

That's not the kind of infection you should be concerned about flower!

They do, but using chop sticks is actually a lot more efficient with most of the food out here.

Yeh, I was wondering but didn't like to mention it.... strangely more fascinated with domesticity than our local pub....
and Rowan's powers of observation on the decline as well. :-/
