Bottled marrow rum - got a mouth-full when mouth syphoning, tastes quite good, but with an after-taste of foul rotting marrow. Mmmmm.
Made willow wall hanging for my grandmother - flowers, bullrush and curly willow, using kit from here. Pretty easy and the final look is very effective, particularly the bullrush.
Dried garlic- in preparation for making garlic oil later this week - an option for my Xmas pressie selection.
Bought some fantastic miniuature bottles for the oil and damson gin here - super quick delivery, and the bottles are absolutely perfect! Quite tempted by many other items on the site, and now regret my resistance and am longing for more. Another purchase may be required.... (so much for not spending much on Christmas presents, I 've spent loads, and a fair bit more on myself already!)
Also received my wine bottling equipment on Monday - bottles, corks and a corker, from here. So the elderberry wine can be bottled soon, although I'm not sure it's finished its fermentation yet, without possession of a hydrometer. That's on the Crimbo wish list!
