everything and the kitchen sink

Nearly everything one can reasonably imagine; many different things, often to the point of excess or redundancy. An alternative form of "everything but the kitchen sink." After the bank foreclosed on our house, we had to pack up everything and the kitchen sink into our truck and drive across the state to my mother's house. We were only going to be camping for two nights, but she still insisted on bringing everything and the kitchen sink along with us.
