My husband never takes any of our silverware to work either. It started first with the small spoons going from 8 to 4 then 2 mysteriously reappeared. Now it's been the big spoons. I had 8 now I'm down to 4. What's with ghosts and spoon fetishes. It may be time to ask A&E's paranormal research state to find out why ghosts have spoon fetish's.

I'm thinking spoons would like to hide there if they were trying to frame you. Which, obviously, they are! Is there a crack between the stove and counter, by chance?

Most people think that the dishwasher is a simple machine. It isn't, it is simply where the dishwasher imp lives. Come on, how else do you think your dirty plates get cleaned? Thats the imp, scrubbing away. Only sometimes you get a dodgy one. One that'll steal the very items they should be caring for. And because he, or she, is an imp, and small they tend to go for the cutlery. Yours obviously has a spoon fetish. I blame the dishwasher imp.

I do mind the fact that our president is vain enough to pursue such frivolous affairs and thinking it good for his popularity to expose it all over the media. I wonder what will happen when she dumps him in a couple of weeks. I don’t mind her.

It's good we have a phase ten/scattergories tribunal next week, to properly assess and weigh the situation... Yogamum - thank you. I think you are the only person here to actually announce in writing that I am, yes, innocent...and, by the way, I do believe you are the blogger who freaked me out about lint ANYWHERE AROUND MY DRYER, let alone socks... A. - good cover. I believe you have never taken spoons from your home, but I have seen them implemented more than once, digging into a grapefruit! Musings...okay, I haven't yet stopped laughing from the wanderlust line... Mandarine...I sort of want to jump off a building now. We ARE political opponents. Damn. I did read about your president and Bruni today...seems the French aren't overly thrilled with her? Smithereens -ha! I think you are right. We may have two clues... Cam - Done. It is obviously (shhh) S. I love the thought of your mother counting her silver...don't know why... Katie…hmm.

I don't think I'm to blame. My mother used to compulsively count her silver after washing. No trash was to be disposed of until the silver count was done. Count was always to equal 23. Can we guess why this count was implemented? Interestingly, I don't think she has done this since my father died. Nor do I think she's lost any spoons. Not that I'd blame the dead for spoon-stealing, but I think it adds some credence to your ghost theory. I lost a good silver bowl once. Couldn't find it anywhere. 6 months later my then 7-year old son cried about how his worm farm had dried up -- and showed me my good bowl filled with dried up dirt. He explained it had been under his bed and he had been keeping his worm moist. It must have crawled away.... Shall I conclude that there is something with the male chromosome that lends itself to the disappearance of eating utensils? Hmmmm....no, not I. I won't make that assertion.

This really looks like one of the (not really funny) tricks the Stasi would play on East German couples when they were tagged 'enemies of the state'. First the little things went missing, then bigger things happened, until husband and wife split. Sometimes, they'd hunt people right to depression. Suicide is cleaner than political assassination. Or maybe the spoon are not dishwasher safe after all and tend to spontaneously melt after 54 drying cycles... Are you political opponents of some kind?

As soon as they are let out of the drawer and get a glimpse of The Outside World, they get the urge to travel. Until, one day, they pack a little knapsack, and off they go. I once worked at an office where each employee was presented with their own mug and teaspoon. Within 6 months, all the teaspoons had vanished. Spoons have an innate wanderlust.
