We all have items on our wishlist that we would like to acquire. Then perhaps we get some of them, and we wonder: why did I want this?
I have a funny case in point.
A few years ago, a well-known retailer advertised a multipurpose cake server, salad bowl, hors d'oeuvre server, and punch bowl. I had to have it and put it high on my Christmas wish list. I received, and everyone commented, as I did, how wonderful. Can we borrow it for such an event?
Fast forward to a couple of years later; the dish set was still sitting in the original box, which clearly showed all its uses. I decided to unpack it. It is huge and heavy. Now I have to figure out where to store it. Yes, its multipurpose functionality is impressive, but it is HUGE. Where do I put it? I am not sure it will fit in my one empty Christmas shelf. Empty because I have given away a lot of stuff to friends and charities in recent months.
