This is such a time saver. In the morning or in a hurry you don't have to play "now where did I last have that?"! Sometimes I announce out loud "I put the .... on the counter." Just saying it helps me remember. Thanks for sharing.

For example, I keep a spare set of car keys on a hook in the garage by the door that goes into the rest of the house. Makes it easy to get in the car if I accidentally lock he door!

We have a special peg in the kitchen where we hang all of the keys. You are right, it makes it a lot easier!
