I can't tell you how many replacement parts I have ordered because Dave used something. I don't even get upset anymore. I just order a new one. Somewhere in my house is a GIGANTIC PILE of covers for the cooks corer. LOL
 
Actually, it's a little known fact that there is an invisible little critter in most houses that survives on a diet of cooks corer covers and missing socks from the dryer.

Especially the ones that have your name on them, just as you're ready to leave for a show.

FOUND IT!!!!

I had looked in every drawer but one--the one drawer full of plastic stuff that we made for ds to play in the kitchen.

It was hiding under his snack bowls. :)
 
Better assign it to be the play drawer for DH, too.

As if all his drawers of unused tools in the garage aren't enough?

So, hide your good stuff w/ covers in a drawer in the garage.

Good thing is I hadn't ordered the replacement yet.
 
If I want to hide something from my DH, I just put it in the vegetable drawer. He never thinks to look in there. It's for vegetables, after all.
 
lol! I hide things from DH in the laundry room! I am not sure if he has ever been in there!!
