Hi Everyone,
Yes, I admit to being a lurker on this board, although I am a regular poster to the Boston.com board. My Fiance and I are getting married in June at the St. James Church in Salem and our reception is at the Oceanview in Nahant. I can't believe that the countdown is under five months! So far everything 'seems' under control, but lately I have begun to feel some more of that wedding pressure. But so far, so good...so I am hoping to keep up the good luck. I don't know what I would do without these boards and am totally addicted to them - so thank you for all your advice & I look forward to posting again! Kate.
P.S. Any more registering tips? We are going to BB&B on Saturday and I think that I am more stressed out about this than any other part of the planning process. It is something about "committing" to a set of pots and pans for the next 20 years...it's harder than committing to my guy :-)
Welcome Kate! I'll post about how to "join" the blog so that you can create posts as well, rather than simply comment.
I loved registering, but I'm a big cook, so I already had a good idea what I wanted for my kitchenware, and the rest was just style choices. I have Calphalon Tri-ply copper cookware, which is beautiful and cooks GREAT, but is a lot of work to maintain. You can't go wrong with All-Clad, obviously, and I actually really like the new Calphalon hard anodized pans (I don't know what the line is called). They are pretty fantastic actually- cook and clean up like champs. If you're not big cooks, but just want something steady and basic, you could look into the new Emerilware, which I haven't used but have heard good things about. I guess they're developed through All-Clad, and pricewise, I think they're a step between the real good stuff and say Farberware. I'd just avoid anything that's the old traditional Teflon-coated non stick- the health concerns are pretty minimal but exist, but more importantly there are better options now. If you want non-stick, upgrade to a hard anodized style.
(Okay sorry, I'm a kitchen nerd.)
