It was a casual but productive pass-time. I've lost my nerve. Along with other things, making marmalade now feels like a major operation to be worried about, postponed - and perhaps not tackled.<br /><br />EstherEsther Montgomeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05412078991551799972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4749601618320817103.post-79545979684973310382011-02-04T15:33:44.697-08:002011-02-04T15:33:44.697-08:00Ann, if only I could:-) Not having a conservator...Ann, if only I could:-) Not having a conservatory, neither oranges nor lemons thrive in this part of SW London. I get a marmalade pack (available for about another fortnight)delivered from Riverford Organics with my weekly vegbox, but friends find their Seville oranges from Sainsbury supermarket or local greengrocers. (They usually ring the Supermarket first to check when the fruit is due in). <br />Andi you would not be allowed to just sit, chat and drink tea without pithing. Even tho I love you dearly. How do you think I trained P to offer help? And my hands were fine thank you (lots of oil in orange peel, plus a top up of Body Shop's Hemp Hand Cream. Slightly antiseptic/herbal, very good after orangeyness all afternoon).Scattered Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09036280727246164559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4749601618320817103.post-14469774227999870532011-02-03T01:58:51.044-08:002011-02-03T01:58:51.044-08:00I wish I could've been in your kitchen while y...I wish I could've been in your kitchen while you did all this.
