Love me Some Boxes

Do you want to know what-- or who -- baffles me?

The wedding registry companies of the world of course.

The fiance and I have been blessed and have received a few things off of our registry (YAY) already! One common theme between all of our presents.....

....the ridiculously large packaging that they send your items in. Yesterday, we received a small vegetable bowl and a small platter. The box that they sent it in... no less than 3 feet by 3 feet. Seriously, talk about overworking the postal workers and wasting cardboard.

They could have easily sent both of these items in a large shirt box. I have a feeling that if someone buys me that kitchenaide mixer that I've been swooning over for so long, it's going to arrive on my doorstep in a refrigerator box.

The upside-- I have two cats that just love to play in the boxes.
