Things That Make Me Feel Like a Grown-Up: The Garlic Keeper

1) Having a garlic keeper means I have a kitchen and I know how to use it.  

2) Having a garlic keeper means I either like to cook or am a character in a Charlaine Harris novel.

3) Having a garlic keeper means I have an extra $17 to spare and absolutely nothing more interesting to spend it on.

4) Having a garlic keeper means I don't want a ragged, half-used garlic clove sitting on my counter when the dog walker or the cleaning service come by.

5) Having a garlic keeper means I have delusions about how much counter space I have available and am willing to simultaneously berate myself for using surface area on a giant ceramic head of garlic while also admiring this twisted piece of pottery for its smooth lines and outstanding symmetry.

Sigh.
