One of the things I like best about giving to other people is giving something meaningful, as opposed to just any old gift. I really try to find something they would truly love because that makes it more fun for me. I also try to give things that aren't just material items - I'll give cookies, or offer to do chores for them. It's still a way of giving, but one that moves beyond the physical gift and into the idea off giving of myself to someone else to let them know how much I value them. 

As for the love list, I mentioned my love for the first snowfall of the year. It's always so magical and makes me think anything is possible. I'm still amazed that frozen rain/water turns out like that.
