On a somewhat lighter note...

It's a disorganized sort of Monday. I ought to be doing any number of Very Important Things, but right now, I'm enjoying the fact that the headache I woke up with has finally succumbed to Tylenol. Did get the laundry started. That ought to count for something.

Haven't heard from By yet, about the truck fixing. Hopefully that goes well. Have no idea when he plans to be back tonight.

Never did hear from my sister on Saturday. Must remember to call and check on her sometime this week. (But not today, that's more stress than I need today.)

I'm drinking tea today, in the hopes of calming the three-week-long woozy stomach I've been dealing with. Am hoping that it's from allergy/sinus issues, and not that ulcer trying to make a comeback. Probably a futile hope, but....

The marmalade/jelly turned out ok...softer than I'd like, I should have cooked it another ten or fifteen minutes, but tastes lovely. 2 lemons and 3.5 pounds of kumquats made 17 half-pint jars. We had fresh orange jelly on hot biscuits for brunch yesterday. Kitchen still smells like oranges.

Your orange jelly sounds wonderful! I've also been meaning to ask you if you've ever made cilantro pesto, and what did you think of it if you had? (I'm actually cooking, it's amusing)

I haven't made it, but I expect I'd like it, because I really like cilantro. Your mileage may vary.
