精簡生活小招

Deal with junk drawers

搞定雜亂抽屜

Crack open that drawer you know you are afraid to open.It's time to do some much needed cleaning!

趕緊砸開那個你一直很怕看到的抽屜吧，是時候好好清理一番了！

First, pull out any items you can easily identify and know you will use and set them aside. Second, get rid of anything that is broken, expired, leaking, damaged, mismatched or missing a mate or working part.

首先，把那些你一眼看出還能使用的物品挑出來放一邊；然后扔掉那些過期破損或殘缺不全的東西。

Third, donate or give away any sealed items or products you no longer want or unnecessary duplicates you do not need (do you really need five can openers if there's only two of you in the house?)

最后，捐贈掉那些保存完好但你已經不再需要或已經擁有的物品。（要是你們家只有兩口人，有必要用到5個開瓶器么？）
