I still have this now. She's always hiding my shit from me. Deliberately to piss me off. /s

Every item should have an agreed-upon place where it goes. Then if it is not out/can't find it, it's in its place. So if you both agree on that, then putting things away is NBD, and no one is hiding anything.

The phrase in my household, “put it where you expect it to be”

This works great except when you don’t agree on where you expect it to be.

We have an ongoing battle about where whisks live: with the blender and beaters, or with the cooking spoons and ladle.

Our rule is “whoever empties the dishwasher gets to put things where they think they belong”.

This presents a chicken-and-egg problem. I expect all my shit to be randomly strewn about because that's where I've always put it.
