Nicely composed.

Finally found what to do with the box of clementines I accidentally left outside my front door when bring in groceries during the cold snap a couple of weeks ago. I found them the next morning as solid as a crate of 6-pounder cannon balls. Put them in the freezer right away till I figured something.

Turns out they make a very nice marmalade. The freezing even seems to soften the skins a little. Made this lot today as a tester - with ginger and cinnamon additions.

That looks really tasty. My neighbor makes marmalade that includes vanilla seeds. I suppose it takes a lot of scraping.

I found an Oystercatcher at the ocean on Sunday. . It's the first time I've ever found one in my life. . Always so fulfilling to find a new species!

NEW THEME

So nothing from me, as my vision is pretty wonky.
I had another surgery yesterday and it looks like I won't be using a camera for a few weeks.
I'll get corrective lenses in about 6 weeks. It's pretty frustrating, but getting better. Once
the swelling goes down, I think I'll be better. Right now just walking around is pretty interesting

It's good to see some new (to this thread) POTNers posting up with interesting contributions. Thanks for playing.
Keep me entertained please. I am bored

Thanks - and it is pretty good. Going to thaw the rest and do the same. It was pretty easy to make, and my first time trying a jam/marmalade. No scraping in this version as it uses all the pulp. Just washed, cut into small pieces - sections and rind - boiled, and cooked with sugar and spices. Some of the recipes I looked at did separate out the pulp but I think this worked well. No texture issues, not for me anyway.

My typical way of following a recipe is to read a bunch of them - to understand the subject's chemistry (ingredients) and physics (time/temperature) - and then adapt. It usually works.

Sorry to hear. Hope the peepers are feeling peppy again soon.

I am so sorry to hear that you are having to go through this.
Spring is definitely happening here so I should be able to find some
shots for you.

Thanks for the good wishes, Rob and Kevin..
It's just a bit of inconvenience.. I'm a bit of a whiner
