I have that same style of baker's rack bookshelf (two of them, in fact) here. I think I stuck a photo of it in an earlier thread when I put my mother's old cookbooks on the upper shelf and baking and cooking materials on all of the others.

There was progress here over the weekend. Today I gave a bucketful of chard to my next door neighbor and other stuff to a friend who stopped by. (We got started on a funny riff on not getting "stems or seeds" in his chard or oregano that he was taking home with him. This after he pointed out that my Texas Star Hibiscus looks like a pot plant.)

I have a similar box to the new CD box you're using. I put it in the kitchen for folded printouts of recipes. This afternoon I used it when I dug out and photocopied a recipe for the neighbor who received the chard--she didn't have directions for cooking "greens" (Southern style). I had gotten this recipe (ironically!) from the friend who came by later for oregano and chard. :) He'd been kind of silly about how he got the recipe--he asked a "good ol' boy" in the grocery store who he saw buying a big bag of greens. So he made up a real long southern name for Billy Bob . . . and it was all on that recipe I gave the neighbor.

I've been working on eBay listings for Silver Certificates. I don't collect them so I'm not going to send them out for grading (I also probably don't have enough of them to make it worthwhile). I think I'll be posting these early this week.
