Beautiful citrus! πŸ‹πŸŠ

Jun 01, 2023

Hi Members! I've decided to start sharing my instagram and facebook posts here too so those of you who aren't on those platforms can see what's been happening! πŸ˜€ I've been busy working on my conversion chart this week, but got waylaid by a cold....

There's nothing like citrus to brighten your mood, your taste buds and your home when the winter colds are lurking πŸ‹πŸ€’

This morning I finally dealt with the bowl of Meyer lemons and navel oranges I collected from our little trees last week. I also had a couple of Tahitian limes given to me on our recent holiday, so they went in too!

Into the jar went lots of peels (wash the fruit first), which I then covered with white vinegar. I'll let this sit for a fortnight before straining and bottling for a DIY cleaning spray (use 1:1 with water) and maybe even a hair rinse? πŸ€” The Pyrex jug has 1 litre of mixed juice from all the fruit. I'll dissolve some sugar into that later for a quick DIY citrus cordial that we really love! (I always add some zest to my cordial - really ramps up the flavour/aroma).

Just a few little things to share with you today as I commiserate about having a cold. I've been working on the grain-flour-grams conversion chart all week, it's getting there!

Enjoy this post?
