    So I just began my registry (at amazon.com and oh my gosh--it's the best spot to register at! think: endless possibilities!)

    My most favorite item is:  A gorgeous carved Hope Chest!  (ok, ok, and a fabo mantel clock with chimes!)

    What are YOU must excited about?

    I had so many, but I think my most favorite was either my bedspread, Kitchenaid mixer or the Cuisinart fondue pot.  I love that thing!

    Oh man another one for the stand mixer here! Even though I won't use it all the time. I'm also really excited for the cuisinart. We don't have a food processor right now it's gonna make cooking so much easier.

    I'm also psyched for our everyday dishes from PB. I signed up for evertything in the "Emma" pattern, I've wanted them for years, but couldn't justify buying it all for myself.

    Fun thread VirginiaMarie.

    @Blood--Love that set.  GORGEOUS.  Great taste

    @Naangel, Cinnamon, Junebride, dancy- So I wasn't going to register for one (a kitchenaide mixer that is!), assuming I won't use it much.  But my aunt already told me she wants to get me one.  Hmm, no idea which to tell her.  I guess I need to look up reviews?  What makes one better than another?

    I'm old school so I registered for the Kitchenaid Artisan model with the tilt top (I think the newer ones have bowls that tilt out instead). I chose it in Ivory - the same as my Mom's. She's had the same machine since the 60's and the only repair that's been done is that they needed to replace the plate where the bowl screws onto the base - she'd used it so much the threading had worn down after 40+yrs. LOL

    I won't use it all the time, but a few years of Christmas cookies and hosting 2 Thanksgivings and a 30th b-day without it has taught me that lesson. It's also great for anything else you can think of - it has attachments to make everything from homemade pasta, to homemade ice cream.

    I think I even put down for an extra bowl so I can use 2 at the same time. LOL

    @ Sulli - FI wants the Dyson too. I HATE vacuuming & have mostly hardwood floors but he usually does it in the 1 room where we have carpet. The one we have now sucks (no pun intended).

    I think he just wants it because he laughs every time Craig Ferguson makes fun of the commercial and says "the proper amount of suction" Hahaha!

    I want to register for some All-Clad cookware. I haven't started registering yet though. The thing is that I have been aquiring items for a bit since I have been living on my own for 5 years now and enjoy cooking. I am afraid people are going to freak out when they see how much it costs.

    I'm most excited for the crystal we've registered for.

    @Joeswaffle: we're the same way, we are registering for pretty nice cooking stuff because we are doing more of an "upgrade" than getting things for the first time and we cook a lot (FI went to cooking school, actually).  I have just tried to use some discretion in not going overly crazy and registering for a wide variety of inexpensive items.

    I'm most excited for our honeymoon registry!  We are going to Montreal and I can't wait!

     

    But if I had to pick a "thing", hands down, it would be our bedding from the Macy's hotel collection-- not that I don't love IKEA and everything, but I am SO ready to get rid of my old sheets and comforter from there!

    Le Creuset all the way. We braise and roast like there's no tomorrow.

    I'd love if we could get the furniture, Wii Fit Plus or TV, but come on, we just added those for the discount. :)

    We registered for a wii just for "funsies"... we never expected to actually get it. Not only did we get it, but we got a couple of games and they threw in a pink controller for me!! :)

    I got a few gifts that we hadn't registered for that I ended up looving too (pretty dishes and a coach purse for me and coach wallet for him!)

    My hubby's favorite gift was the keurig coffee maker. I must say it's pretty awesome :)

    Our flatware.

    Like everyone else, I'm big on Ikea, but I miss having forks and spoons that don't bend every time you use them!

    Our coffee maker and large pan from William Sonoma. Right now, our current coffee maker sometimes floods teh kitchen with water when it doesn't feel like working and we don't have a pan big enough to cook the WHOLE MEAL in. I have to transfer things from the frying pan to our large pot if any sauteed food needs to be added to sauce it's so annoying!!

    So, I'm totally off the norm, but it was a little mini charcoal grill that was my favorite. He was perfectly round and had a blue lid. So adorable! We got it and used it all the time in our condo. Now that we have a bigger house, he's used for tailgating at Phillies games. He's so little and cute...I love him!

    Kitchenaid.  Mixer.  I think those were the first words out of my mouth after I said yes!  "Of course I'll marry you OMG WE GET TO REGISTER FOR KITCHEN TOYS!"

    @Jojo - I love that casualware!  Too cute.
