I like having knives, forks, spoons left to right as that is how I say it “grab a knife and fork”.
I am staying in an Airbnb and they have the spoons separating the knives and forks and wonder if this is in insane or maybe I am the minority/insane one?
We have it the same as you. I never really gave it any thought.
I think these things are a matter of personal preference but only really strikes me when I go to get something out when I’m not at home. (At home you can only open the drawer halfway to grab something.)
