According to Google the word present in Italian is presente. I think I can handle that one. It’s pretty easy. Or should I say easye?
For this presente you’ll need
- A colander
- dish towel(s)
- box of noodles
- jar of sauce
- Italian seasonings
- cooking utensils (optional)
The colander takes the place of a basket and the dish towels take the place of tissue paper! Super simple! Don’t forget your free download below! Or belowe.
Note: After receiving a few emails about my incorrect Italian I have created a new gift tag. This is Pasta Night 2.0. Thanks for helping out my poor language skills! : )
super cute! I officially love your blog and all the free printables!
I currently have one printable on my blog, not sure if you would be interested but its a recipe card for blueberry buckle.
you can find it here – http://breezypinkdaisies.blogspot.com/2011/07/delicious-blueberry-buckle.html
“presente” means the present as in the here and now, “regalo” means present as in gift… just so you know :) love the post!
Very cute idea, just an FYI–Bon is French, appetito is Italian. The Italian phrase is Buon Appetito.
Apparently I should just leave the foreign languages to people who know what they are doing! There is a reason I studied sign language in high school, I didn’t have to speak it! Thanks for the clarifications, I will just stick to making corny gift baskets!
Some see the rose, some see the thorns…see this as a “sign” Sweetie. Lovely Rose of a gift! I love it as something to give and I would certainly love it as a gift received.
I think you need one more step in the instructions. Like, say, put the pasta back in the pan before adding the sauce. :) My hubby added the sauce while the noodles were still in the strainer right after we got married and left it there until we were ready to eat. Yeah…. :D
presente… has a double meaning.. it means present as in gift and also as in here now.
Love the idea. Can see it as a wedding shower gift or anniverary gift.
Great house warming gift. Thanks for the idea!
Both words may deal with gift giving, presente, present means gifts, or objects given free without expecting something for return.
