Trash Talk

I know you're garbage pickers.

Confess.

Whether it's the baby's pacifier from the kitchen trash, or the payment slip that ended up in the wastepaper basket, there's at least one time in your life that you've had to fish something out of the garbage. And the great telephone table sitting in the alley doesn't count--that's treasure finding. What have you had to haul your sleeves up to save?

I hope you didn't have to go past take-out cartons to find it.




bunkum (n.): foolish talk; NONSENSE

Oooooh. Most recently, I had to garbage pick for two spoons that my daughter dropped in the trash. I had to dig past the turkey and potatoes and cooked carrots. And a stinky diaper that the hubby didn't put in the diaper pail. Eeeew.

I had to dig for my earring in the bathroom trash. Ewwwwww! I don't know what's worth, bathroom trash or kitchen trash. Guess it depends, huh?

How about the toilet, too? I recently fished (literally), my smartrip card out, and it still works fine...
