Make a mental note every time she says something like "I wish I had...." or "I wish I could...." and see if you can make it happen for her. I guarantee she'll think you're a goddamn wizard. In my family, a woman starting a sentence with "I wish..." is actually a direct order, to which you are expected to respond with "Yes, ma'am!" But we're Italian, so... I, too, struggle with how to do nice things for people. It backfire sometimes, and doing something nice for someone makes them kinda happy, and trying and failing makes them WAY MAD, yo. I got my girlfriend a bad present a couple years ago, and she was pissed for days. (Me and my father are both very bad at presents. I only realized my father was bad at it on my most recent birthday, when he gave me an end table, a secondhand knife, and five pounds of pork loin.)

Fine, then two years ago he got me a used and rusty caulking gun, then asked for it back almost a year later.
