Dirty little secret

Do you all remember the time when I dropped 999,999 gumballs on my kitchen floor? If you dont remember, that about a year ago. My dirty little secret is that yesterday I pulled out my stove to clean all around/behind it and I found one!! SICK. There was one little pink gumball resting in the octagon shaped metal foot of the stove...just sitting there with a little grin just waiting to be found.

I know your all thinking, woman don't you clean your house!! And yes, yes I do. I even pull out the drawer on the bottom of my stove and sweep under there quite often. I guess what never dawned on me was that the stove has sides and to get a good clean I had to pull the unit right out. You would also never imagine the yucky gunk that gets slopped between the counter and stove. Also the heap of crumbs that gets squished in there too. I guess the comforting thing is that we quite obviously do not have any mice. Otherwise, I am quite sure they would have take care of those goodies.

It is just one of those "spring cleaning" things you never think about doing. So since I had the umpf to do it...does that mean spring is on the way?

How often do you pull out your appliances and clean behind them?
