“Friendship and family are important. The holidays are about sharing and seeing people I don’t have time to see throughout the rest of the year. Creating memories is not about shopping. Instead of bringing wine or buying a gift, try to make something for someone special. To me, it’s that extra effort that shows you care. I’m always very grateful for gifts that are homemade.”
