How many times has this happened to you? You spent hours alphabetizing the spices and herbs. And you poured this ingredients into smaller, smarter looking containers. Perhaps you balanced the checkbook. Maybe you weeded that bit of land to the side of the house, where no one can see it. Will people appreciate it?
No. No one noticed and no one will notice.

And the portmanteau from the words: NO One will nOtice yields

Another very useful term!
