I turned my back on the Lime and Ginger marmalade just a litle too long and cooked it past the ideal setting point (so had to make another batch for the charity sale orders). That means I have a couple of litres of runny lime and ginger marmalade to use up somehow.
On that basis I deviated a bit from my objective of baking recipes from my childhood collection, and went in search of interesting things to use up lime marmalade. Watch this space....
Meanwhile I wanted to share this fantastic pink grapefruit marmalade recipe which is so easy we should all be making pink grapefruit marmalade.

Now that is how a baking blog ought to be - lots of photos, lots of explanation.
I can't improve on that except to say: know your pink grapefruit - the redder the better. The first batch I made used ruby grapefruit and was pink/red, the second batch the grapefruits were not so red (more pink than red) inside and the result looked like orange marmalade.
