I also made some lemon and lime curd to go in the baskets. They sure look pretty in jars!

Genny I ran out of store bought jelly and jam a while back.
All I had was jalapeno jelly I made.

My family would pick every kind of fruit and berry there was to make jams and jellies throughout the year.
In the winter we had tons of oranges and citrus.
I didn't even know what marmalade was until I left home.
For the life of me I have no idea why my mom didn't make marmalade.
I have no idea why I never made it this is the first time ever.
As for the Habanero orange marmalade it isn't as hot as you would think.
It has some sort of strange spiciness to it but very little heat.
I think the sugar encapsulated the heat inside the pepper shavings.
When I made the jalapeno jelly it wasn't that hot as time goes by it is getting hotter.

The cranberry sauce turned out the best I have ever made.
I used the regular recipe on the bag and added 4 packets of Knox Gelatine.
I used two 12 ounce bags of cranberries.and added some pectin.
