      i had to share how the violet jelly turned out:

      after soaking (considerably less fetching):
      violet jelly - the process

      the violet "tea" was rather teal, but after adding lemon, it turned more pinkish purple:

      and the result:

      for the actual recipe, it's blogged here.

      Fantastic. The blue hues of the glass jar fit well with both the flowers and the wood table. Nice use of bokeh too.
