Not wanted

Things I need but I don't want.

1) A larger fridge.
Seeing how the freezer is twice the size of the regular frigidarium area, yes I need a fridge but couldn't care to get one cuz I don't want it!

2) a smaller pressure cooker
Cuz small children might fall and disappear into the current one that I have.

3) ice cube trays.
I have only two ice cube trays and I don't use the silicone ones because my nose refuses to agree with the silicone stench and I up cycle plastic containers to make ice and I clearly need trays but I don't want 'em.

4) blendtec /vitamix
My need for mixing apparatus far surpasses those in any other household of that I'm sure and yet I have net invested in a blendtec/vitamix though I know I dearly need it, not sure if I want it though.

5) kitchen aid stand mixer
See above.

6) a large wok
I have a decently functioning medium sized wok that I literally use to cook almost everything and often times I feel a bit handicapped because some dishes need a larger more efficient wok, seeing how mine is ancient (nicked from my mom) and not very good at keeping things unstuck since it heats up a bit quicker than it should and I know I need a larger cast iron or aluminium wok but I don't because I like this one more than I should.

7) new carpet
I know sounds extravagant but it's a need seeing how the ends of my carpet are frayed due to cat attack. The feline fiend has a habit of clawing, chewing and scratching the ends of this carpet resulting in giving it a rather antique and used look, which might not look that bad but that's only because I do away with the pulled out fibers and trim them. Yes I desperately need a new carpet but do I want it? Not particularly.

8) spice keeper
You know the round stainless steel ones with retro authenticity but instead I have clunky square ones with huge containers that aren't enough to store day to day spice needs which is why I have two. They take up space and I don't think them pretty. Yes I need a spice box but I don't want one.

Indeed there are needs and there are wants but sometimes you just don't want the needs.
