2014—When Life Gives You Lemons . . .

. . .Take a photograph of them! I visited my friend Barbara in Vacaville Sunday and we had lunch and shopped amid the frenzy of all the other crazy people at the Vacaville Outlet Stores doing last minute Christmas shopping. The highlight of my day was the huge bag of Meyer lemons Barbara presented me before we left on our shopping adventure. Barbara has a green thumb and she grows lots of citrus in her yard. In the past, I have made wonderful things using Barbara’s Meyer lemons, including lemon curd, lemon meringue pie, vinaigrettes, even limoncello. These fragrant and succulent lemons are my favorite kind of lemon and I hope to create something wonderfully delicious from them.
