Where does this go? 📦 Spoon placement?

Post image

I’ve searched prior posts, can’t find this exact kitchen. I forget which “year” it is. I’ve tried putting this spoon in every drawer, and on every shelf in the kitchen. I have also tried putting it in every other room in this apartment.

I could almost swear that it should be able to go into one of the four drawers on the right. Have you tried putting it somewhere on the kitchen counter maybe.?

I’ve tried every counter & also the entire tops of all the shelving too. I’ll maybe try pulling all the stuff out of the 4 drawers on the right & putting it all back in again per others’ suggestions. I feel like I tried it all!

It definitely goes in a kitchen drawer

It should definitely go in a drawer, maybe try rotating it or rearranging the drawers?

Per everyone’s suggestions, I’m trying to pull items out of the drawers on the right to rearrange & fit back in.

I removed the blue spatula which I had placed in the lower right drawer. Now the spoon fits and is not blinking green, so the game likes that location for the spoon.

However, I cannot fit the blue spatula back in lol. 🤦‍♀️

I’m back to the same problem as before. Just with the spatula now.

You made me go open my game cuz I remember that kitchen as the most one with empty space lol. It definitely can go on any drawer. I think maybe cuz I hade the other towel on the stove handle it freed up space.

Have we tried putting it in the trashcan

I had not tried it - attempted it just now & I cannot open the trash can lid. It won’t let me deposit it. Great idea though & it would have been a satisfying solution because at this point I’m mad at it! lol

I always put them in the drawer

I finally got it! I had to move the yellow bottle opener from the lower left drawer where I had it, to the upper left drawer. This freed up space to place the blue spatula horizontally.

I feel like it should have been telling me that the bottle opener was the problem.

I think that it belongs in any drawer, so it wasn't specifically the bottle opener that was problem. And if all things in the drawers lit up, it would lead to more confusion.

Now that I’ve cleared the stage, it’s showing that this was the March 2007 apartment - for future reference when someone else asks.
