I am enjoying it, and treated myself to this today. Sopping is very rare for me.



One hours wages to get it.



Can't wait to try it.

Got more jars, but actually didn't need them.

Made mustard and it wasn't quite how I expected. I like it, DH not so sure, but it needs to mature.

Now back to running in ends of cotton on my dishcloths and scrubbies.
Be back later.

Oooo, I wonder if I can find baguette trays over here.... Looks great.

I bought a box of jars the other day, and started filling them up for christmas.  Cute little hexagon ones, I think they are 125mL
The flash has made the colours rather washed out - the Lemon Curd IS actually yellow! And the relish not quite so orange.

Lovely labels JO   mine are very rough handwritten ones in comparison.

It's not actually a tin, it's a silicon pre folded, pre shaped mat!

Doing split shifts next two days, so not sure when will try it. Oh just remembered need to order more flour as emptied cupboard out of bread  flour. Only spelt and a bit of wholemeal left!

Funny Yorkshire puddings today. Aldi flour not up to expectations!

Yup, it's Lemon Curd  ;D (Tenina's Lemon curd recipe)

The labels are done with my home computer/printer and my Silhouette cutting machine.
