BLOOD ORANGE MARMALADE

MY MANIFESTED CAT

This gem was inspired by one of my three, yes three, cats. She is well loved calico forest cat and is the biggest cuddler I have ever encountered. If she isn’t chasing her two sisters, she is pouncing on a yellow plastic twisted band we bought her. A true rescued tiger and I am so thankful to have her heart beating. This marmalade recipe also represents the exciting citrus season of the snowy winter. My bread making/loving boyfriend thinks it is to die for.
