20th January ~ 100 word diary

Yesterday I bought a jar of Rose’s lemon & lime marmalade. I loved the jar and the colour of the marmalade and I’d never seen it before. I happened to mention it to my friend M on our walk through the marshes and she said, “Rose’s lemon & lime marmalade! We used to eat it at the hotel for elevenses. If it was warm, all the staff would sit outside and eat the cold leftover toast from breakfast with Rose’s lemon & lime marmalade.” Who knew a whim for a jar of marmalade would lead to such a wonderful story.
