scan and sip with noritake!

I know I'm a broken record on this, but I really don't think you can say it enough.

I am so, so lucky and so grateful for all the amazing opportunities that Sugarlaws has brought me -- I can never quite get it out of my mind that if I hadn't started this blog back in 2007, I probably would never have had so many incredible experiences that I've gotten to have just because of Sugarlaws.

And one of those really incredible experiences was this video I shot last week, along with Noritake, Macy's, and the Knot!

We had so much fun shooting this segment on china and wedding registries, adapting a few of my recipes to complement the dishes, and generally dishing (no pun intended... no, seriously, I actually wrote "dishing" in a post about china and did not intend a pun) about what couples today want and need in their kitchens. As you guys know well, there's nothing nearer and dearer to my heart than that.

The full video will be out next month, but I couldn't resist sharing some quick snaps we shot that day! Since most of my videos on this site consist of me talking into a Flipcam on a tripod, it was pretty exciting to work with a real, professional film crew. As I'm sure you guys can tell from the photos, I had a total blast.
