The Knife, The Tumbler, The Pan, and The Pizza Stone

For the past 10 days, I keep losing things.  Really losing them, like thinking that someone has been sneaking into my house at night and stealing them.  First it was my 24 oz. Tervis Tumbler, which I use every day to drink water from.  It has been my constant companion for months, and out of the blue, it was gone.  I searched high and low - even checked the refrigerator thinking maybe I put it there, like an old lady absent minded thing.  Then it was my little fry pan that I use for scrambled eggs.  Seriously?  WTF?  This morning it was my Santoku knife.  Then I opened the oven and discovered that the pizza stone I stored in there was also gone.

Gremlins???

As I was at the sink this morning washing the few dishes I had, I remembered that I hadn't checked the dishwasher.  I only use the dishwasher once or twice a year - hand washing is just faster.  I opened it, and found...you guessed it - my Tervis Tumbler, my knife, my pan, and my pizza stone!

Now before you think that I put them there, I didn't.  My housekeeper did, with all good intentions, I'm sure.

I can now breathe a sigh of relief knowing that my visit to Crazy Town was only temporary.  At least for now.
