Our Winter Break gifts...

Here are the finished products. At long last, here's my gift to my nephew, a tin of homebaked cookies and the first One Piece episodes.

Next, R brought in the reject cookies and fudge from our baking into lab for labmate consumption.

We were having issues with how to install the shrinkwrap on our tins since none of us had a hair dryer or heat gun. Then, as R's blueberry bagel toasted in our manly toaster, D had a brilliant idea.

He used the escaping heat from the toasting process to heat up the shrinkwrap. This worked surprisingly well.
