Is it junk or junque? I have a drawer where I keep all the correspondence materials I use. It is filled with stamps, pads, pencils, pens, tape and the hordes of address labels I get in the mail. Then there’s my kitchen cooking accessories that fill up another drawer. It’s stashed with items like strainers, knives, bottle openers, graters, tongs, measuring cups, spoons and spatulas. It’s a mess, but I usually manage to find what I need.

The bane of my existence, however, is a very large drawer filled with cords and wires tangled together.
