Holiday Gift Ideas: Infused Oils.

There are so many reasons to make your own holiday gifts.
Or buy them from local vendors and artisans.

First off you will spend less time in those horrible big box stores, fighting the crowds to buy useless merchandise from China. Don't get me started.
Secondly, my guess is most of the people on your list really don't need a lot more things to dust, return or regift to their in-laws ;-)
Thirdly it's fun.
Fourthly it's more personal.
Fifthly it's less expensive.

Everyone has to eat and it's so easy to personalize food gifts to accommodate any allergies or preferences.
And it doesn't need to take a lot of time.

Here's a simple one to start with: infused oils.
Even if you don't cook much, infused oils can be used in salad dressings or served with a crusty French bread. 

Every few days I will post another simple homemade food gift.
Next up, infused vinegars !!
