You're such a talented lady. The marmalade story is wonderful and made me think of home and the jars and jars and jars of marmalade my mother made every March, enough to last a year! The big brassy "marmalade pot" boiled away for days on end until the kitchen was like a sauna, and the walls and windows ran with condensation. I must remember next time I talk to her to thank her for all that lovely jam and hard work! Will read again soon--I'm off for a marmalade sandwich! Great blog, Buff. You’re such a talented lady.

But who knew I was in for such a treat! Feel like I'm in that kitchen with you, Buff, all warm and orange-y and ready to laugh some more.

It is important to remove the pith to have that wonderful glaze like look. Maybe you could write about the mulberry jam we made. think how you would describe those rich colours. We look forward to more forays into Julie's orchard later in the year. What wonderful images you stirred in my memory. It is important to remove the pith to have that wonderful glaze like look.

So much creative talent in one package. I love all the non-marmalade details you include in your writing. Your description of the muddy dog paws and slippery grass made me feel like I was there. I love your almost poetic style too. Sometimes the best sentence is just a collection of words that convey a feeling, worrying about articles and verbs and whatnot may make it grammatical but it often takes away the art and beauty. Kudos! I will be checking back frequently. Much love. C Buff, you amaze me. So much creative talent in one package. I love all the non-marmalade details you include in your writing.

I'll put this on my husband's reading list - he's British and you know how the Brit's love their marmalade. This was a fun read!
