You, too!!! We also have the plastic/acrylic AND thin-plexi cutting
sheets with the traditional boards. Bob has several, including a HUGE
butcher block style board, and then when we married I had my favorites
that I brought with me. I'm not particularly crazy about using the
block, because I have smashed my fingers moving it for cleaning. (Not
crazy about his mandolin either, but that is another story).

At the moment, we have a few that are doing the "letter-holder-thingy"
using our TWO knife blocks to wedge them up. The big butcher block
does lay flat on a separate counter, and another board sits upright on
the block leaning against the wall. And yes, there are a couple of
others in the cabinets.

Are your walls solid enough to put hangers on for storage? I've done
that before for boards that had holes in them on handles, etc. Sort of
decorative as well, depending upon the board.
