The Christmas gift giving theme this year in my DIL's family was 'abbondanza'--Italian for abundance. The idea was to give from the abundance of your own talents, strengths and creativity for all to enjoy. I gave my photographs enhanced with Anna's artsy designs (matted/framed). We ate, drank and were merry through brunch, afternoon tea, and a wine tasting. Skyped with the grandchildren. Abbondanza also included children's art, pepparkakor, citrus from Texas, homemade granola, nuts and chocolates. All left with hearts full of love!
