Yakushima is an island in the south of Japan that inspired the scenery for the film Princess Mononoke. It is covered by an extensive cedar forest that contains some of Japan's oldest living trees! "A UNESCO World Natural Heritage site, Yakushima is home to Yakusugi cedar trees over 1,000 years old, pristine beaches, and Japan's best sea turtle nesting site"We've booked snorkeling here, as well as two guided hikes (one up a mountain, and one that goes through rivers and waterfalls!)

General Honeymoon - Explore Japan!
Since Maggie's an old dog, she loves to be carried around in a backpack on hikes! We've taken her to Pony Pasture on the James River, to hike along Great Falls, and plenty of other places with her backpack! This attachment to the backpack we carry her in will let her enjoy the shade when it's sunny and hot out. The backpack can also be configured to have straps to hold a human child too!
Rain/Sun Hood for Maggie's Hiking Backpack
$115
Now that I work from home, I can only really either print from the library or make Nyssa print things for me at her work. Would be great to get a printer at home! - Zach
Brother HL-L3280CDW Printer
$299.99
These will be great for serving our dinners! We don't have any intermediaries between giant cooking spoon and regular eating spoon, so these will be luxurious.
Scoop 3-Piece Serving Set
$50
Some nice glass glasses (we don't currently have any glassware besides two martini glasses, I believe) that serve a double purpose with lids so things can get stored in them for later! Great for making sauces and storing them in the fridge! I love sauces - Zach
Working Glasses, 21Oz., Set of 4

This is a clear umbrella - good for sightseeing or checking out the cool raindrop pattern!

$14.40
This lil milk pan is so cute! It would be perfect for making stovetop hot chocolate or a serving of oatmeal, among other things!
Porcelain Enamel Milk Pan - Green
$35
We usually cook together, but when one of us is cooking alone, it'll be nice to be able to use this instead of trying to use the lid to strain it while also holding the pot at the same time, or for bigger things try to hold the strainer and the pot and carefully maneuver them together. (it's possible one of us may have accidentally lost a whole thing of pasta in the sink that way in college - we won't say who (T-T) )
Williams Sonoma Open Kitchen Clip on Strainer
$19.95
We have larger screwdrivers, but occasionally we need smaller ones that we have (or even smaller handles, in some scenarios), and occasionally we also run into weirdly shaped screws (like torx security screws) that we can't properly handle. This accounts for both of those scenarios!
iFixit Mako Driver Kit: Precision Screwdriver Bit Set
$39.95
It's not much, but we have some other various assorted tools already. Our current hammer is actually a mini hammer multitool that Zach won from a comp sci thing at NC State. Which has served us well, but it'll be nice to have a regular full sized one.
TRIXIG 15-piece tool set - IKEA US
$15.99
Symbolically adopt a Jerboa - really this is just a nice fun way to donate to WWF. Look at how cute the Jerboa is! It's a mouse, but it moves kind of like a mini kangaroo.The Greek philosopher Plato once described a human as "a featherless biped", and so Diogenes (another philosopher) came up to him with a plucked chicken and said "Behold, a man!" If Diogenes knew about Jerboas, he wouldn't have had to pluck a chicken - since they move like kangaroos, they're bipedal. So I guess they're human?
Donate to WWF - Symbolically Adopt a Jerboa
$60
Doesn't need to be this exact one if you find another. Having the lid specifically will be great for making and transporting things like veggie trays! - Zach // Veggie trays?! I was thinking cookie trays! -Nyssa

This flatware set has a gorgeous bee and honeycomb design on it! Fun enough to be memorable, but tasteful enough to be timeless. Made in New York State. We are interested in either the 40 piece set or the 45 piece set (Link is just to overall page for the design).

You know how brown sugar likes to turn into a rock? This thing fixes that by adding a little moisture to the container!

The real appeal of these guys is that if a recipe calls for 3 tablespoons of soy sauce, this can measure it in one fell swoop! Also really handy for conversions between measurements
Liquid Measuring Cups Set
$17.96
An upgrade to our pie making! We currently have your run of the mill glass pie dish, but this one is made with a corrugated surface that will help crusts brown and cook evenly! We both like to make our own pies for Thanksgiving every year (cranberry lime pie was a particular hit), and chicken pot pie is one of our usual go to recipes year round.
King Arthur Pie Pan
$16.95
We love to make our own pizzas! Nyssa even used to work at a pizza place in college. We usually make two so we can each have our own, or do two different flavor profiles (we do both like pineapple on pizza, sorry not sorry)! This pan is an upgrade on the one we have, plus then we'll have two circle pizza pans so we can both make circle pizzas!
King Arthur Pizza Pan
$24.95

Supposedly the IKEA rechargeable batteries are actually made in the same factory in Japan that a really good brand is, and so they're cheap but high quality!

We've gotten some other kitchenware in teal already, so this is on theme with that! We do love the color. Might be able to get it cheaper from somewhere like Macy's, or it looks like the site has a $50 off coupon if you spend $275, so you could get something for yourself here too.
