Does this happen in other homes?

Things are disappearing 'round these parts. First it was my keys, which took off about three weeks ago. I know for a fact they made it into the house from the last time I went somewhere with them, but beyond that... who knows? I got a new house key made, appropriated Zach's key to the station wagon, and I soldiered on.

Late last week, we noticed that the olive oil was missing. A brand new bottle -- poof! We have looked everywhere in the kitchen, taken a quick tour through the rest of the house, and it hasn't turned up.

Graham is a likely suspect in both cases, obviously, though of course he pleads ignorance. Unfortunately, the next most likely suspect is me. I have been known to pull the whole "keys in the freezer" thing a time or two. But where, pray tell, would I have absentmindedly carried the (brand new, by the way) bottle of olive oil? And which essential item will be the next to go?!

It happens in our house too. And usually the lost item is in the diaper genie. Try looking there!
