Gifts from Italy courtesy of Charlie

My sweet friend Charlie who came to visit me in January from England (lives in Ireland now) went on a trip over Easter to Italy. Venice to be exact. I have been dreaming of going to Venice, Italy since I was about 10 years old! I WILL get there someday....I just KNOW I will!!! Anyway, She went to Venice and sent me back a few things from there! I was SO surprised and excited! I finally have authentic Italian things in my house!!! YAY!
