Laurel Erilane, teacher:
"Gifting is one of my love languages. I will always make food for the people I love; any time of the year. With a grateful heart this holiday season, I will gather with friends to fill their bellies with yummy food, laughs and stories, because my favorite all-time gift to give and receive is presence with people who make my life better just by being a part of it!” Gift it: Sweet Laurel cookbook, get it on Amazon

"This year I’m giving my mom a beautiful replica of my dogs paw print that is encased in wood. My beloved beagle was put to rest in June.

My mother lives alone and cherishes the memory of my dog who she had a close bond with; I want her to feel his presence even when she is alone." Gift it: Hearts & Halos
