Gift-giving is a socially complex affair with a lot of wrapped layers to it. There's the expectation of the level of gift you're going to be giving someone: what it's going to say and how much it's going to cost, along with the symbolism of that gift and what it's going to mean to the other person. Of course, a great gift often won't be the most expensive but might be the most heartfelt or one that meets the laid-out expected qualities that your relationship with that person dictates. And it all depends on context—a handwritten note from a secret admirer will often be sweet, while photos of you eating your lunch taken with a telephoto lens from across the park often won't be.
And, well—my grandma gave great gifts. I still have a great many of the gifts she got me a quarter of a century later. This grandmother and mother-in-law, however, took it upon herself to label all the gifts that her grandchildren's parents had gotten them with her own name, "From: Grandma." At a certain age, you're old enough to know whether or not something is wrong, and 71 is certainly that age. While it seems ridiculous enough, it's enough to make you wonder whether or not she just never learned not to behave in this way or whether there's something else going on here.
