Busy making Marmalade and Lemon Curd

It's been a busy week, so I'm showing you the cooking I did the other week :-)

Our lovely neighbour gave me a bag of lemons.

So I cut them up.

 Added some sugar.

Added some oranges and boiled it to make Marmalade.

All the ingredients in the pot to make Lemon Curd.

All stirred and boiled to thicken the mixture.

Lemon Curd - Yummo.
