Marie Kondo’s new Netflix show “Tidying Up” has America on a serious cleaning kick. There are even reports of folks overwhelming thrift stores with donations thanks to the Kondo effect.
\nIn her form of organization, formally titled the KonMari Method, the central question that’s asked is: Does this spark joy?
