You have inspired me to start decluttering again. Only twice this week, but I have found five Vogue clothing patterns I'm never going to use (other clothing patterns are less likely to be thrown out, as they fit properly in the drawer), and three jars of nearly full flavouring essences, with expiry dates of 1994. Yes, I've been using them, but really, I don't love them enough to use a couple of drops of each a year!
