I am still marmalade

Watching the maraschino cherries sink in the marmalade jars (Old Fashioned flavour) made me think of a weird version of Pooh sticks. But maybe they will remain pleasingly suspended 😎

Couple more batches of #marmalade2026 - firstly, Seville & fennel seed.

Update on #marmalade2026 Batch no.2: Old Fashioned Seville w/a maraschino cherry in the pot Batch no.3: Dark & Moody (Demerara and dark muscovado sugar, plus treacle since I ran out of the dark sugar) w/ whisky. Quite a firm set on the first, I suspect a loose set on the second.

Standard Seville marmalade - no booze or other additions. Friend said she doesn’t know who I am any more 🤣

Today I learnt I should not have put the mangosteens in the fridge Bugger.

Met lovely friend for early dinner at a favourite keralan restaurant, then to theatre for a funny play which was only 70 minutes long so home by 9.30. All of the above makes me so happy.

I made some gooseberry streusel shortbread at the weekend because I needed to use up some frozen gooseberries to clear freezer space But it did remind me that unless one has access to home grown stuff, they’re quite hard to track down aren’t they? I may have tried to find frozen gooseberries

Made a Manhattan marmalade tonight And no, none of the cherries are centred in the jar 😜

I hadn’t realised some many people had come across to here. But for the mild amusement of friends from elsewhere, I am still marmalade. And my bourgeois tragedy with this year’s first batch was that I may have overdone the bergamot I never imagined I would write such a sentence 🤣

I am watching an episode of Columbo and he isn’t wearing his coat for much of this episode and it’s very confusing

Batch no.2 of #marmalade2024 - and it’s the Good Morning Breakfast recipe from Melrose & Morgan - Seville, blood orange & ruby grapefruit. And a nice jiggly set 👍 And much speedier by using an instant pot for pressure cooking as per @catherinephipps.bsky.social 🙏

Marmalade season upon us - batch no.1 of #marmalade2024. Seville made boozy by adding the flavours of an Old Fashioned.
