I don't mean what you use to chop down your feces, but an object that you realized only your family has and people would raise their eyebrows at. Best if said object has a sole purpose.

Haha we have a kitchen hammer and screwdriver! Our family found a similar drawer in a vacation home and laughed about it; then we got home and realized how often you just need one of those and it’s great to have one right there!

Yep, the kitchen "junk drawer", filled with a few hand tools, rubber bands and zip ties, batteries, graphite lubricant, matches and lighters, screws and buttons, other miscellaneous bits and bobs.

If only I had that many drawers

Two? One for flatware and cooking utensils, one for "junk".

Not to be mistaken for the kitchen "miscellaneous drawer", filled with condiment packets, wrapped plastic utensils, other large kitchen utensils you rarely use but won't fit in the regular drawer, maybe an extra meat thermometer that you're not sure if it even works.

For a while we had the kitchen shovel.

It was a garden trowel that we had washed and used as a very large spoon when we first moved in, because we hadn’t found the silverware yet.
