Kitchen Sink

I spend too much of my life standing in front of the kitchen sink - washing dishes*, massaging stains out of my sons clothing, washing more dishes, preparing dinner, etc....This spot is NEVER PRETTY!  I know, I know, not everything has to be pretty...but today I've grown weary of staring at the baking soda!

What's in and around your kitchen sink?  Does it fill up with misc lost objects from all over the house?  Do you have a slew of soap dispensers and cleaning products?  Have you stopped noticing or have you discovered the secret to keeping it looking good?  Do you put everything under the sink when you are done - for reals?? (FOR REAL NOW)

UPDATE: I poured the baking soda into this etched carafe (a treasure I picked up from goodwill that was stashed in my cupboards)...a little bit of pretty just in time for the long weekend!



ps. I did ALL the dishes and tidied up because Laura from Gracefully Searching is dropping in this evening to pick up my rattan chairs!  Yup! After a full year and no perfect place for them, I am letting them go!
*My husband is a HUGE help with dishes, although he never washes the pots and pans...only 'soaks' them!
