Strawberry Kiwi jam is the biggest hit around here.  I made a Peach
Apricot 
Ginger jam that I liked, but got no feed back from recipiants (sp?),  so 
never made it again.

I made a nice Seville Orange Marmalade in February.  Lime Marmalade sounds

interesting...let me know what you decide - I might hound you for the 
recipe,
