Yes, I am on a marmalade mission again. A fresh batch of marmalade while citrus is still inexpensive. To build stocks especially after an unexpected sale of seven during the week.
For today's market, the popular Moroccan lentil and butternut salad.
To go with the other labelsnand to replace the fiddly little tags that I used for the shallow and pot-bellied jars, round labels now gracing the hummus and chicken liver paté, etc. jars.
Speaking of jars, this week's jar: the very popular lentil and butternut...
But
In the middle of this I acted on a thought that had been in my brain for says and got in touch with a friend. As it turns out, my intuition was right: he's had some nasty health issues. He's dealing with them and I understand the prognosis is good. But still. A shock.
And then another. The news Jan Boer who had been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer some 18 months ago, had died.
I had a little more wine than I should have, so supper was just, well, supper.
As I write a year ago this day is much on my mind.
A little contemplative, but that's life, right?
Until next time, be well

- If this post might seem familiar, it's because I'm doing two things:
- re-vamping old recipes. As I do this, I plan to add them in a file format that you can download and print. If you download recipes, buy me a coffee. Or better yet, a glass of wine....?
- and "re-capturing" nearly two years' worth of posts.
