Hi! My name is Amy Blanco and my story is hospitality. I am inspired by friends, family and the talented folks around the state to create gift baskets that are unique and personal.  It is my crusade to make everyone feel welcome, appreciated and special through gift baskets.  I also wanted to highlight the exceptional products made by Georgia residents. There are so many interesting, talented people here with a story to tell!

My grandfather Donahoe never met a stranger and would often bring people home for supper that he had just met (although I should mention this was much to the consternation of my grandmother). He would also leave pennies on walking paths for young people to find – giving them a bit of luck! When I moved to the South (or rather more South as I was born south of the Mason Dixon Line thank you very much) it was refreshing to meet so many open people never too busy for conversation, sharing or teaching.

When I married into a Filipino family, I was fully immersed in the art of giving and making people feel at home and welcome. After all, this is the way my new family made me feel from the start. We should all make it a point to let the people in our lives know that we appreciate them- be it clients, teachers, friends or family.
