C&B, BB&B

As soon as I arrived in Boston last week, we had a quick lunch and made a beeline to the glorious city of Burlington, Massachusetts not knowing that this was a black hole of energy and excitement.

After looking for parking for about 30 min, we finally made our way into Crate & Barrel where we had to spend another 10 minutes hunting down an available employee to help us get started. Cyrus said he'd read that a trick to keep the groom entertained while registry shopping was to give him the scanner...so he took the scanner and it brought a few moments of enjoyment. But overall, our time and Crate & Barrel and Bed Bath was productive, but pretty tiring.

Here's Cyrus telling the registry machine who's boss.


I have to mention that the customer service at Bed Bath & Beyond was out of this world fantastic. Seriously, they were treating us like we were celebrities!

So what's the item that we're most excited about?

I was eyeing the Waring Pro Professional Waffle Maker ($79.99)...


But we decided that it would be a little impractical. So instead we went with the modest, practical and probably just as effective Cuisinart Round Waffle Maker ($29.99).


You will be ours. Oh yes, you will be ours.
