Everything But the Kitchen Sink

Everything But the Kitchen Sink is a gen multimedia anthology.
An adult het sister zine was proposed in 1985. It had two original titles: One was "Hint of Mint" and the other one was "This 'n That." This zine was retitled and became Adult Situations.
==Gen, But Some Slashy Stuff==
The first issue of the zine does not mention the genre of content (het, gen, slash), but instead has a statement about ratings. 
However, the very first fanwork in the first issue is a very slashy Professionals poem called "First Day."
==Issue 1==
Everything But the Kitchen Sink 1 was published in May 1985 and is 185 pages long. It was edited by Mary Jo Blythe, Karen S. Eaton & Elaine Webster. Artwork by Pat Cash, Ruth Kurz, and Michael Verina.
