Yes! Where do marbles come from? I never buy them, but they keep cropping up underfoot.

Excellent list!
I suspect marbles come from the same place into which lost socks disappear. Perhaps the socks transmogrify there and emerge as shiny little orbs....

Colleen, is this a generic or a specific drawer? Either way I'm glad to see that it contains a slug.

mollusque, this is both a general 'things that might be found in one's junk drawer' and a pastiche of all the junk drawers I have loved before.
and by slug I mean both the bullet and the fake quarter. :D

I have a corkscrew with no bottle opener and a bottle opener with a corkscrew that broke off - fortunately (or unfortunately) I have so much cupboard space that I can keep them both.
