Miss Mason, extracting several parcels from her carrier, flopped gratefully into a rocker, and drew off her gloves. "One or two," she said. "Here, Lily; here's your marmalade, and here's the soap, and a letter for you. There are a few bills, Mary, and a couple of notes " she passed them across "and here's an afternoon paper one of the Haven youngsters handed me as I passed him on the road.
Take the young green stalks of the rhubarb plant, or spring fruit as it is called in England; and having peeled off the thin skin, cut the stalks into small pieces about an inch long, and put them into a sauce-pan with plenty of brown sugar, and its own juice. Cover it, and let it stew slowly till it is soft enough to mash to a marmalade. Then set it away to cool.
"It seems to be all over me the marmalade, I mean but I don't know where the pot is, and I am most horribly sticky!" cried Ducky, who was a most fastidious little maiden. "Where is your fist?
As I sat there sipping the deliciously rich cocoa, Mackenzie joined me, and while Lillie cooked the dinner I must tell him over and over again my story. And in spite of herself the tender-hearted little housekeeper would cry and cry. The dinner, which consisted of grouse, potatoes, marmalade, bread, and tea, was served in the dining room, which was also the living room.
I thought, neither should I. And then came Miss Cardigan, and the servant behind her bringing coffee and bread and eggs and marmalade I don't know what beside and we sat down again to the table, knowing that the next move would be a move apart.

He must be difficult to please who does not appreciate such a meal as Mrs McNab served each morning to her guests in the dining-room of the Nag's Head! It was when Margot had reached the marmalade stage, and George Elgood, a persistent late-comer, was setting to work on his ham and eggs, that the Chieftain fired the first gun of the assault.
Every woman ought to have a man to look after; it keeps her from worrying over trifles." "Do you think I worry over trifles?" asked Eve. "You're worrying over that story this minute." "If I am, it's unkind of you to call my stories trifles. Please remember that if it wasn't for the stories, such as they are, I couldn't afford marmalade with my tea."
Genevieve May showed 'em how to make mincemeat out of tomatoes and beets; how to make marmalade out of turnips and orange peel; how to make preserves out of apple peelings and carrots; and guava jelly out of mushmelon rinds, or some such thing.
Heat two and 1/2 pounds of sugar in the oven; add it to the cherries; also 1/4 pound of seeded raisins and the juice and pulp of three oranges. Cook until the mixture is as thick as marmalade. Boil down any desired quantity of sweet cider in your preserving kettle to 2/3 the original quantity. Pare, core and slice as many wine apples as you wish to use.
The seat opposite me was not filled when we sat down. "Where is Mr. Langenau, Charley?" said his mother. "I'm sure I don't know, mamma," said Charley, applying himself to marmalade. "Charley doesn't see much of his tutor out of hours, I think," said Miss Benson. "A good deal too much of him in 'em," murmured Charley, between a spoonful of marmalade and a drink of milk.
