    I have made a couple that have been ok... but some others that have not :(

    I have an amazing rhubarb chutney recipe for when we are all decluttering copious amounts of the stuff.
    My jam isn't so popular as we are not a very sweet family but I do still make it.

    ffp I hope things are improving for you. Hugs and love to you.
