What are you particular about?

I have to put the milk in last when making a cup of tea and before the hot water when making a coffee, as a ex BF who was french once told me if you put the water in before the milk you burn the granules.

I do this with coffee too! It tastes so much better that way. I didn't realise it was because it burnt the granules though - learn something new everyday!

I'm just waiting for my completion date to move house and my partner said have you decided which one is going to be your tea towel drawer yet (of course I have the biggest one)

My childhood was pretty nice as far as nice house and nice things in it I dont know what my mothers problem with tea towels was. Her family are all the same too strangely. They're italian maybe theres a link in there I'll have to do some research see that the tea towel situation is over there

My family is Italian too, I dont recall the tea towel situation but our bath towels were like cardboard

I've always made my cups of tea like this, but this morning when I made my morning cuppa I thought of you and this post

I can't stand clutter, things left on the counter. Everything has a place and it really pisses me off when things are not put away.

Exactly and why came people just put things back from where they got them from!
Winds me the hell up in my house

I have to shower a particular way, doing everything in the same order. Wet my hair, cleanse my face and rinse. I wash my hair, then condition it, wash my body, shave, wash again then rinse out my conditioner. Annoys me to do it in any other order.
Tea rings left on the kitchen counter drives me insane, I'm single now so no longer have that issue. I'd watch my ex make a cup of tea, I'd be behind him wiping it away. Toothbrushes have to be covered, feel physically sick thinking of any particles attaching themselves to mine or my sons toothbrush. I have to clean my car inside and out once a week, I get really bothered about it if its not done. My main one is I can only use a particular nail varnish brand - if I paint my nails and it's chipped after 1 day, it drives me round the bend.

When chopping carrots, I will not cut them into straight rounds. They need to be julienned, or cut on the diagonal, or diced, or even shredded, just anything but straight cut rounds.
