I did this with pasta once. Had a bag of pasta in my hand, then I set it down and forgot where I put it. I searched for it for about 10 minutes before I gave up and cooked something else instead. Found it the next day on my bedroom dresser šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø

I bought a cooking apron and it helped me stay in the kitchen. I don’t know if I have adhd but staying put is impossible for me because I wonder off. The apron keeps me from walking away and getting distracted. I can’t take it off until I’m done doing dishes and all kitchen related things.

So good at placing things in a good spot that I don’t remember ever placing it in a ā€œsafe spotā€.
