A lazy susan for the top shelf is a more convenient idea than pulling over the step stool. What is the history of the term “lazy susan” anyway??? Such a fun term:)

For sure and a whole lot safer than climbing up on a counter. Don’t really know about the term. I read that the manufacturer liked the way the “z” sound in lazy sounded with the “s” in Susan. It seems that if they were going for sound, they should have gone with a name that started with “l”. 😉

Good idea! I just got a step stool in my kitchen so I can reach the top shelf without having to pull a chair over.

Step stools are so useful and make life a little safer.
