Case of the Missing Teaspoons

They are just all gone, not a one in my drawer or the dishwasher. Almost 15 of them - gone! It took some digging but investigater that I am, I figured it out! My 5-year-old daughter thinks they are cute and has been feeding her dolls with them! So if you are missing some little spoons yourself, take my advice and check your daughters room! Now if I could only solve the case of the missing socks!

Maybe you should come over to my house and find the missing at toys. We have looked in every post possible - under beds, in closets, under furniture, under the stove etc - and we cannot find 12 missing toyu mice. They are really small and can fit just about anywhere. We are ou of places to look. You story reminds me of something that happened to my ex. My exhusbands debit card, license and military ID went missing, We cleaned the entire house, moved furniture, looked in both care. Couldn't find it. A week before we moved the inspector came by to check out the place and she noticed a screw was missing out of the A/C cover. I told her it had always been that way and it had been noted on move it. She decided to open the intake just to check it out and that is where my son had hidden his Dad's ID, debit card and license. We were glad to have it back, but never did figure out how he got it behind the A/C filter.

They get eaten by washing machines -- whitegoods companies also own sock manufacturing companies -- it's a blatant conspiracy.

Give up on the socks. I believe laundry Gnomes feed on them while we are sleeping. I have a 20 gallon rubbermaid tub full of odd socks waiting for their mates to return. The spoon thing is hillarious!

Has your daughter got all the missing spoons or have some disappeared along with the socks. :)

Most children like to pretend. You could get her her own special toy set.

I thought I was the only one with this problem, mine disapper all time. I have checked and found some, but I still am missing several. I guess the aliens took them along with the socks.
