Lemon & Lime Pickles

In between rain showers (more rain!) I took 15 minutes out of the working day to start on some lemon pickle. I was intrigued by Kelly's recipe (taurus rising: Lemons 101 ), and with a groaning lemon tree it seemed like a great alternative to making yet more marmalade. I used coriander rather than fenugreek.




I've also started a batch of lime pickle based on Chris's recipe here, but it's not really interesting enough to photograph yet :-)

Today it has been

VERY windy

and very wet - 83mm in the last 24 hours and still raining

 The rainwater tank is overflowing, and the overflow pond is nearly full. Hope other Victorian and SA readers aren't flooded out!
