Now in addition to our regular cabinets, we have a row of small, rectangular cubby holes on top of our cabinets. They are covered by magnetic panels rather than hinged cabinet doors. They're hard to reach, so I use them only to store those few things that I don't want to part with but that I rarely use.
DH found a container of old silverware up there, which was a good thing, because we actually could use some extra silverware. He found cookie cutters and a bag of old kitchen magnets and all the extra serving spoons I keep on hand just in case I have to do a lot of serving.
Plus, he found something that had to have been up there for more than a decade. This little bench was sitting in one of the cubbies - never found before in all my excursions up there. I wonder if a little Faerie might have placed it there?
I have no idea where it came from and I certainly wished I'd found it back when I was making doll houses. It would have been perfect on the porch of my ranch house.
In addition to this little treasure, I got another nice surprise today:
Strange New World received an 85 from Mrs. Giggles!
Strange New World, I feel, is the perfect nibble-sized read in between action-driven romantic urban fantasy romances...
I think I'll imagine myself sitting on my little bench, basking in the glow of a great review.

The lady we bought our house from left all kinds of stuff here, but no hidden treasures. Most of it was cleaning supplies. I guess she didn't need it in the senior citizen condo that she was moving to. Her bathroom trash cans were much nicer than mine, so I appreciated those.
Congratulations on the 85 from Mrs. G.
Congrats on the 85! That's awesome. The bench is pretty cool, too.
LK, i inherited a lot of cleaning supplies too when we moved in. My aunt owned my house before I did and she was a spotless housekeeper - me, not so much. I suppose I could ask her if she remembers the little bench, but I wonder if she even knew it was there.
Kristen, thanks! The bench is on my desk now. I have to find someone small enough to sit on it.
The review is awesome, congrats!
I can think of a certain imp who might like that bench....
