Kitchen Marble Run

Spotted a long metal ruler resting flat across two empty soup cans. That wasn't just kitchen clutter—that was a bridge! I sprinted up the tea towel hanging from the lower drawer, scrambled past the toaster, and dug up a loose glass marble from an open wicker basket. Rolled it straight onto the stainless steel ruler and gave it a sharp shove. Clatter-rattle-zip! It shot down the metal track, bounced off a ceramic pepper shaker with a clean ping, and dropped right into an empty ramekin. One-shot trick! You should've heard that bounce.
