2 favorites thus far

The 2 most favorite gifts that we received for our wedding are probably two of the most unpractical gifts people could give us.

The first one was the Ice Cream Maker. When we opened the box, Ina gave me this look, like a "not again". Apparently she'd received one before. But we tried it out and the next thing we knew, we were making our own ice cream or frozen yogurt once every couple of weeks. We've made great use of it, making things like Blueberry Frozen Yogurt, Bailey's Chocolate Ice Cream, and Green Tea Ice Cream.

The second one came recently, the Wii Fit. Wii Fit comes with a balance board and works kind of like a step aerobics block mixed in with a yoga mat. There are tons of exercises and we probably haven't even scratched the surface in terms of unlocking all the various exercises, but so far we are getting pretty consistent exercise from it.

We've found that both gifts give us a lot of joy and fun in our lives.

Of course, the "real" gift we've used the most is the Henckels' knife set. I love that thing..
