marmalade

mum's visit added another project to my list last week, but i'm glad it did!

it is seville orange season, and she brought along enough

oranges and sugar to make 12 jars of bittersweet marmalade.

we shredded and boiled, and it finally jelled...
the house smelled so lovely, too.

she has takers for her share,

but i did get to keep a few jars to brighten up my pantry!

(we used david libovitz' recipe.)
