There is something so freeing in having the jam, preserve, marmalade skill as a back pocket. Especially for small batch. I did orange with a few craisins throw in the other day. Reduced to almost carmelized, Really happy but not photo worthy due to brown, 

 

I was thinking something similar today.   Essentially, how small batches of just about anything are so doable.    My M-I-L had the opposite outlook, preferring to undertake huge projects, Herculean efforts, and usually too much product in the end for us to use.   Instead, we turn bits and small lots into a few jars of whatnot, either waterbath processed or if a really small batch, refrigerated or frozen.    And not too much for our small family to consume.
