When hubby and I were making our registry, we went from one end of the apartment to the other. We made a list of everything we needed replaced, wanted upgraded and really wished we had on a regular basis or when hosting guests, before we went to the stores to register. My favorite and most used gift is still my toaster oven-four years later. We are very practical people though, and really didn't want unneeded clutter.
I can see that. Me and J are pretty practical too and I like the idea of going through our house and making a list before shopping - good advice, thank you!

One good friend of mine registered for an electic toothbrush and replacement toothbrush heads. As a joke, I gave the replacement toothbrush heads as part of her shower gift. She had to wait the other 4 months for the toothbrush (that was the wedding gift).
Now THAT's funny!
