Fruits Of My Labours

Yesterday i spent cooking. I'd been to my Mum's recently & picked up oranges & blood oranges on the way home i bought limes & Tangelos. Then last Thursday i came back from the shops to discover 3 bags of citrus on my door step. Still a mystery as to who left them there. In the bags were lemons, lemonade fruit, limes & Tangelos. I've still got the marmalades/jams to make.
Preserved lemons, Limoncello, blood orange butter & lime butter. Not sure how the preserved lemons will go as it's a new recipe i decided to try.

Happy Stitching,
