Can I bear to wash it up?

Go through every item in your kitchen and ask yourself six question

1. Do I find it beautiful?
2. Is it useful?
3. Do I like the way it makes me feel when I use it?
4. Can I bear to wash it up?
5. Does it do anything I can’t do better with a knife and my bare hands?
6. Do I have room for it?

Anything that gets all or mostly ‘Nos’ needs to go. Yes. Even if it was given to you as a wedding present.
