This is how I chose to combat lack of sunshine today: with a calamondin marmalade cake topped and filled with calamondin curd.  This calamondin fruit is simply amazing.  I’ve made marmalade, juice and zest with this tiny mouth-puckering fruit.  It’s a thousand times better than a plain lemon or orange.  I’ve heard it described as a sour orange but it’s not quite that either!

This cake is such a special treat.

I used one of the many lemon-yogurt cake recipes that you’ll find floating around the internet.  Do reduce the sugar though.  Sometimes, I completely cut out the sugar and replace it with my homemade calamondin marmalade!

For the filling, I turned to my trusty Betty Crocker red and white cookbook…such a simple recipe!

3/4 cup sugar

2 T corn starch

1/2 cup water

3 T calamondin juice

1-2 T calamondin marmalade

2 egg yolks, beaten

Combine all ingredients, cook and stir until bubbly.  Cook and stir for two minutes longer.  Add:

1 T butter

Melt butter into mixture.

The curse is that we have forgotten who we are. We have forgotten who we love and we have forgotten what makes us happy.

Quote of the Month

August 2011:"It would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased." — C.S. Lewis (Weight of Glory and Other Addresses) July 2011: Don't use words too big for the subject. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. C. S. Lewis
