Sip & Scan

Last week, Mr. L & I had a date. At Macy’s. We attended the “Sip and Scan” event at the store, registering for all sorts of goodies. While sipping and scanning sounds appealing, in reality it is rather hard to balance a scan gun, the clipboard they give you, your purse, and a drink.

It was a really fun event. We charmed all of the vendors and even won the ‘big’ prize. They had a caterer bring in some food, a DJ spin some tunes, and let us scan the night away. It was a daunting task at first. I mean, jeez, where do you start? Mr. L & I started in bedding and worked our way to fine china.

After we got the hang of things, it was really quite nice to be planning your future together, one household item at a time. We always ended up liking the same items, which made the whole process one big confirmation statement: YOU ARE MEANT FOR ONE ANOTHER! The best part of the night was looking around at all of the other fiances there. All of the guys were miserable at best, except Mr. L. This sounds braggadocios, but I don't care...Mr. L was the cutest, most enthusiastic, most loving guy there. I am a very lucky lady.

We really found some amazing stuff (hint, hint) that I hope we receive as wedding gifts. Here are the highlights:
