I probably make one of the most delicious marmelades in human history. At least that's what my clan claims. Made from blackberries I collect myself(around 10kg or so per year, takes few hours), Rum, Coffee, cinnamon and vanilla(the real one).Relatively little preserving sugar, so it is not too sweet. Around a fourth of my output I give away for fun. From time to time somebody asks me why I don't make a business out of it, some little side hustle in autumn and winter. I then show them the math and the resulting price. And if that is not enough, I explain to them how I could turn this into a semi-profitable small-scale business... This makes them even more grateful for the little gift of mine. In 2020 I probably grew the most expensive San Marzano tomatoes worldwide. The amount of work, water and fertilizer I sacrificed for 16kg of the finest dried tomatoes i ever ate is ridiculous. But then again, family and friends still talk about it. The only vegetable in my little garden of about 350 square yards I could ever break even, beside the usual suspects of different herbs, were Musquée de Provence pumpkins. A compost heap and a lot of water is all they need. But then again I still have a few kilo of them in the freezer from last year and to be honest I can't stand them anymore. Fed up, so to say.
