I was brought up on this one -- "Never empty handed to the kitchen go!" (This is an old Pennsylvania Dutch saying from the Mother (mine). When you go from one room to another, if there is something that belongs in that room take it with you and put it away. - Works for me!

Mine is "I only chew my cabbage once." In other words, listen to me the first time, I do not repeat my self. Edie
