An addendum, re: the jelly candy.

So, it was supposed to set for two hours, after which I was supposed to cut it, dredge the pieces in sugar, and then let them set further over night. Well, two hours passed, I cut it and attempted to get a piece out of the pan but it had not set hardly at all. It was gooey sludge. I put it in the fridge for an hour, thinking that might help it set, but no. Still gooey sludge. I ate a piece of the sludge and, unfortunately, I can taste the applesauce much more than the lime. (If you like applesauce, this is probably not a problem. I do not like applesauce.)

So that was a failure. Alas! But the pie looks excellent and the bread is fantastic and the apples are going to be great (because I've made them several times before and they're hard to screw up). So I am 75% awesome for today.

And I have a good bit of pectin left. Maybe next weekend, I will attempt to make jam.
