In search of... and other excercises in futility

Been seeking the perfect trash can for my less than perfect kitchen. I'm feeling a bit like the 3 Bears. The first one was too big, next one too small, wrong shape, wrong color, couldn't assemble it and the list goes on. The captain put the old one back in its less than perfect spot in my less than perfect, but freshly painted kitchen for time being.

So as to distract myself from my disappointment I decided to search for other things my daughter was needing and wanting. School supplies(easy), clothing(like she has nothing to wear in her closet) and moshi monster figures(not so easy). Visited 2 Toys R Us, 2 Walmarts, 2 K-Marts and 1 Target. The store clerks, all very eager to help shared the same expression of bewilderment. Mosi, Mushi? What is it? Is it something new. Perhaps I should have looked for a trash can instead.
