Below are the 5 things I didn't love (for this week's Minimalist Monday task )
Admittedly, when I assigned this weekly task my brain thought about clothes/the closet. 👚 👗
HOWEVER I did a massive clothes purge recently and didn't even have a single pair of socks to prune...
SO I headed to the kitchen and found these items that truthfully, I never use.
THE TRUTH: I have other spatulas I like better, I've aged out of camping (re: the spoon-fork things), and the other two: a meat thermometer and cheese slicer?? I've been vegan for 20 YEARS.
I know. I know. I can use them on vegan cheese or for melting chocolate, etc. but honestly, I really won't.
My favorite way to 'dispose' of items:
Posting them in my local "buy nothing" group. I bet your area has one, they're usually on Facebook.
If that doesn't work, I try listing on craigslist or I take it to a local charity shop.
