There's a tendency in my family to let counter spaces clutter up just like this. I have to be diligent daily (ok, weekly. or semi-weekly) to make sure I don't accidentally get to this point due to inattention. I wonder if this tendency I fight is an inherited trait or the result of environmental patterning.
