A loaf of crusts

I prefer the crusts toasted, but yes it is the best.

Marmalade is a rountine food for me, I always need to have it in the house. 
In high school my afterschool snack was two slices of toast, one marmite, one marmalade. I think because we have bagels every weekend for breakfast, i've eased off the marmite, and it's been one butter and one marmalade. My favourite is Bonne Maman Bitter Orange Marmalade.

I can't stop thinking about marmalade now. Bitter orange is definitely top for me, with shred.  There is sometimes lemon and lime in the fridge as my husband likes it and my daughter had a phase of this on toast. I have had multi fruit, and three fruit too from a little home-made shop. It's nice to try different one's, including my father-in-laws diabetic one when we visit, but I always go back to the main one. I'm sorry I had to talk more about it, I don't think I would sleep if I didn't. 

We freeze our bread to keep it fresh. 

I could talk about lemon, lime, orange, and bergamot forever! They’re my favorite fruits and also scents. Once I found bitter orange marmalade made with Prosecco! And I loved reading about the story behind orange marmalade from 18th-century Dundee.

the Keillers

Their orange marmalade is delicious.  Also, the cheap LIdl one, Their jams used to be 45p!

I think Dundee looks better now than when I lived there, they were just pulling down the old station at overpass and building a new sea front area too look trendy. I've never been been but apparently it does look a lot nicer now! 

A lot of Scottish accents are pleasant, though some are less so -I could never get my head round the Dundonian pronunciation of vowels, they mix them all up wrong so can be very difficult to understand! 

I loved the stories, both of them, I'll have to look them up more now! It's made me smile!

Hey! You also have bergamot oil in every good earl grey tea! My fav! I will search for Pomelo!

So, I found actually two stories about how orange marmalade came to be.

The first one is that a ship full of bitter oranges was about to go bad before reaching the market. Someone thought, let’s cook them with sugar and see what happens!

Then there’s the detailed version: in the late 1700s, a Scottish couple, the Keillers, started making orange marmalade near Dundee. Janet Keiller cooked it, and her husband helped sell it. They turned it into a proper business, and that’s how it became a Scottish specialty.

If anyone knows the story better, feel free to correct me!

Dundee looks like a very lovely city. I know very little about Scotland. But there’s a video of Andy Murray, the tennis player, correcting a TV reporter from the States—who called him English—and the way he says ‘Scottish’ always makes me smile.
