Spoons is a reference to energy levels. Google spoons and forks autism.

Also matches, dice, and even Street Fighter power bars. Each is slightly different and may give a better understanding to different folks or in different situations. (Post below is mine)

lori,

@aloopapu I often run out of spoons. This is a result of some weaknesses in my executive skill set, in particular keeping up with the dish washing. My bouts of dish washing are more likely to be motivated by the need for clean dishes (and silverware) than by the rising pile of dirty dishes. I always run out of spoons first. This is probably because I tend to gravitate toward one bowl meals and spoons are what I use.
