Christmas presents pt. 1

I'm in the process of making Christmas presents for my friends!
The good thing about culinary school is that I learned how to make people tasty presents :P
Anyway, the first one done:



Raspberry vinegar for my friend Cassy.
I can say that this turned out 100% like I wanted it to. Me and my dad were both surprised at how much it actually tastes like raspberries. He was, however, not too happy that a little thing of raspberries costs 5$.
The bottle decoration turned out just like I imagined too. The bottle is an old safflower oil bottle I kept cause it was pretty. And I succeeded in making a little raspberry leaf tag for it too!
I wish I could have got some better pictures of it too...I just can't seem to get the whole bottle in the shot and also have it look nice :/ I'll try to get some more in the daylight and see how that turns out.

I like making gifts for people because then I can make them pretty XD

*has no girlfriend, so pours creative energy into friends' gifts*

The only girl I kinda like doesn't really have a set address so I can't send her Yule presents anyway.
