Kumquat marmalade. One of my favorites but I only had enough fruit from my tree to make 2 jars so they will be stored in a locked cabinet 😉

Ibrahim Nasrallah’s “Gaza Weddings” is a moving, poignant story that captures some of the emotional layers of life in Gaza. (Published in 2004.) It’s a book that I continued to reflect on days after I finished it. #booksky #booktok #writingcommunity #writers

Finished picking mirto by the Adriatic Sea before the rain started. These will be washed and soaked in alcohol as part of the process to make liquore di mirto.

Only advice I had yesterday for my brother dealing with cat odors. The home inspector for my first house says this for no reason while we're in the attic. "You know how you get rid of a dead body smell?" Me: "Uh, no😳." "Put coffee beans on a hot plate and leave it on low." He seemed knowledgeable.🤔
