What's a short girl to do?!

This is why I married my husband... because he can reach stuff that we keep on top of the cabinets! (not really, but it sounds good for this post!) This past Sat. I was making his birthday cake, and needed the cake taker. Then I remembered that it was on top of the pantry. I was here by myself because Keith was at guard, and the kids were at my sister's, otherwise I would have let Avery get it for me. I have a step stool that I have to use on a regular basis just to reach stuff in the top of the pantry, but not even that was helpful. I had to stand on a chair to get onto the counter, and I could still barely reach it! I just knew I was going to fall, and there would be no one here to help me!! Thankfully, I was able to get the cake taker without any injuries, and the cake made it safely to it's destination!!

I'm glad you guys appreciated my dramatic photography!! I wasn't laying on the floor, but the camera was. :)
I would find somewhere lower to keep it, but then something else would have to go up there. Unfortunately, I have way too much kitchen stuff. Not sure where I got that from!! :)
