Unpacking from the land of giants

There's nothing like seeing Texas-sized stuff in a Manhattan apartment. Our electric can opener could tear open a trash can. And what's with our 15 inch dinner plates from Pottery Barn? We have to store them in the hall closet!

All our possessions have been hidden in boxes for over a year; it's amazing how huge everything looks to us now that we're back in a small home.

(Speaking of our Pottery Barn gifts... why didn't any of our friends tell us we registered for three sets of bowls? Salad, dessert, soup... what were we thinking? Temporary insanity: pre-wedding stress. Or too much fun with the scan gun. What's your excuse?)
