Still life with found objects

Now with answers!
lake fly corpse not  included It's quiz time again! Guess where I found the following:

1. Shredded wheat square: c, living room, near front door
2. Dead lake fly (not pictured): e, dining room table
3. Newspaper wrapper: g, fireplace mantel
4. Bath toy: f, dining room floor
5. Dirty baby sock: a, dining room sideboard, amid Mother's Day card display
6. Kiddie chopstick: b. living room floor, near piano
7. Old, dirty glove with hole in finger: d, TV room

Magpie came closest with three correct answers (lake fly, bath toy, chopstick). Extra credit to binkytown for revealing the weirdest thing she's found lately.

Thanks to Elizabeth for inspiring this post.

  5. 1 = a
    2 = e
    3 = d
    4 = f
    5 = g
    6 = b
    7 = c

    I think I tried to be logical, which I suspect isn't the point. Was this all today?

  8. Since sofa (in or under) isn't an option, nor is table, kitchen...

    Oh, ha! What Christina said LOL.

    Oh, ha! It's a match and link. I thought they were all in the same spot so my second guess was sideboard.

    Err, so I choose A fro all. That way I get one right, at least. LOL

    Okay good... I thought you meant all the items were found in the same place but clearly this is a matching game.
