"Hi, Chrissy Lyons with Expert Village. Our next creative basket will be Italian. If you remember, we used this actually as part of our gift. Put a little bit of stuffing, it doesn't really take too much. I just use a little bit of tissue paper and have it set out a little bit. And there again, I'm going to start with your tallest and biggest items to go at the back for the height. I thought we'd stick this other pasta, having different flavors of pasta is always a fun thing to do, especially for people who love to eat pasta. Tomato, regular, spinach and have you ever seen black? I've never seen black before, I thought that was rather unique. This one is basil and this one is spinach. Then I thought we'd put in some spaghetti sauce, that's always good and then a dipping sauce, there again, when you're putting your different themes together, you can put things that compliment as well and there's a dipping oil. If you're familiar with that, you slice up a French stick and put it in the grill or Panini maker and then put your dipping oil on top. And then here's an artichoke bruschetta topping, and put that on there and look how easy, before you know it, you've got it all ready to go. And that's just quick and easy, several little ingredients that can go in and I think it will look pretty, what do you think?"
