Funny, but I prefer the heart shaped brownies as they are consumable and do not remain in the gifts cache, which does have a limit. Nothing worse than having a large quantity of outdated theme parts that cannot be deleted taking up valuable storage space. I accepted all gifts as a new player and have slowly been eliminating extra parts over time by building unneeded appliances. I always ask my neighbors to send me food items unless I request a part item.
The most valuable neighbor is one who plays daily, gifting and tipping consistently, and who posts briefly or otherwise on my wall.
