Does not compute! Does not compute!
I just totally had one of those WTF moments when I walked into my kitchen. There was so much stuff all over the floor! I naturally assumed the cats got into something. It took a full minute of staring before the "stuff" coalesced into an entire floor full of broken glass. Then, I saw my counter was also completely covered in glass, and that my IKEA Grundtal shelf had completely come off the wall on one side.
I anchored that sucker! With massively heavy duty anchors that were $13 a box from Lowes! Ah well, nothing much that can't be replaced. It's not like I ever use my oven anyway,despite the best intentions to do so, so having all my pyrex glass bake ware in a million pieces isn't the end of the world. Though it is a bit ironic, in that I just got rid of about 7 casserole dishes of varying sizes in an effort to declutter my kitchen. Now I have none. Extreme decluttering!
On the positive side, a couple of my funky colored Pyrex bowls survived! I love those suckers, and pick them up at yard sales and thrift stores whenever possible. They're pretty! Thank goodness most of my collection was on display in the dining room : ) And this really cool Pyrex Lipton coffee cup my Nana gave me when I first went to college made it through the Great Crash as well. That's really the only irreplaceable thing in my entire kitchen, so yay!
On a side note, oh my freaking god!!! Just saw the trailer for Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D!!! I'm so out of the loop with these things, lol. Looks freaking awesome, can't wait!
