Glasses upside down, dishes right side up, mugs on trees. 

Can's and jar's upside down 

Empty easier.

Glasses and cups upside down so the don't collect any dust in the bottom - I had to train my hubby so he did the same 

That's the way I've always done it - and why. Was taught that as a child.

Your husband collects dust in the bottom? 

Glasses,cups and plates right way up.

Drinking vessels rinsed 

OMG

Politics of tablewear.

I don't know - I just put them away... I have never thought about it.

Oh god more stuff to be worried about.

*goes to do inventory of stuff*

hey you!!! good to see you!!

I suggest you go and think long and hard!!! ( I dont mean that in the filthy way either )

Eileen  

You have ruined my life with your glass politics

Velvet, Zazz

sorry but it's important dontcha know!!!!

Right way up for most things. Mugs are on a mugtree.

I've just checked ... it would appear that I store glasses upside down and mugs the right way up, how weird is that ?

Creep

Don't you come in here insulting people 

UP UP UP UP

*prays for cups* they are not in my cupboard long enough to gather dust but if stored upside down they may gather smells   this is my ocd worry.

Oh.. you're conflicted...  

Same.....except for the trees

No.... don't be putting other ideas in my head.... Now i'll have to worry which is the lesser of two evils, dust or smells.    I'm only just coming to terms with the council expecting me to keep a bucket of food scraps in my kitchen.... it sits in the corner pulsating and making me ill...

ops **snigger**

Eileen.. 

LOL! But I'm not checking.

Im telling you a quick swill of water and the dust will be gone..... a quick swill of water could make the smell worse

No, no, diffusion would make the smell go but a quick swill of water just spreads the dust inside the cup/glass unless it's a proper wash!

Right way up..... I know lots of people store them the other way (including my kids) but I just don't like the thought of the rim of cups and glasses sitting on the surface of the cupboard  shelf

Same here Baz and nothings in my cupboards long enough to collect dust but I still rinse everything including pans before I use them....

you must have a very interesting garden...anyway im a bit 'sleeping with the enemy' its all gotta be the right way..or..

Me too 

I tend to do that too Stonks.... especially if  we have  family or visitors around....

you are all mental ocd freaks

Nah, just do things the right way 

I dont think there is anything right with mug trees

LOL!  Why? 

I think they are unnecessary clutter

I have glasses and mugs upside down just because my mother used to worry about mice droppings and I've never been able to shake off that thought.

Eileen

I only have six mugs on the mug tree, the others are in the cupboard.

 Guilty as charged Zazz

Ah right. I guess it's how much space you have in your kitchen, saying that mine's only a small one and I have my mugs on a tree. The ones I use most. There are some in the cupboard too 

Its a freaky contamination thing with me with my OCD......you should see how clean my hands are....
