If you give a girl a lemon.

Chances are she is going to want to bake something lemon-y.  Such was the case when I was given 20 lemons.  Seeing the lemons reminded me that I had this Luscious Lemon Desserts book. I unearthed my lemon zester and lemon juicer from my utensel drawer and start grated and squeezing and squirting lemon juice.
I recommend this book to anyone who loves lemon. I was tempted to make this tart, but could not locate my tart pan, not even sure I have a tart pan.

I used lots of eggs.

Lots of lemons

Lots of butter   Y'ALL..  Seeing this much butter brings out the Paula Deen in me.

The star of the show.  If you don't own a zester, run to your nearest Target and get one.I use it for grating parmesan cheese and oranges and even garlic. 

Look at these beauties.  Lemon Bars.

Yes, I did endulge,  can I just say  Mmmmmmm.  delicious.

Lemon bread,  this is lemon-y goodness times 7. 
So, when life hands you sour lemons,
turn them into something sweet.

  2. Yummmm.....any lemon bars left? They are making my mouth water right now.

    The wonderful consignment store is in Selma. We're right off the 99. I remember you went to Hanford and we're just about 20 miles from there. Wouldn't it be fun to meet some day?
