We’ve been out in the sticks visiting my mom. In between rainstorms we’ve been picking lemons and tangelos by the bagfuls. It’s crazy how productive my mom’s trees are. I’m thinking I might have to take a page from JustJen and declare a lemon (and tangelo) week. I’m not much of a baker but it would be a shame for all this citrus to go to waste. If you live near me, drop me an email and maybe I can share some with you.

They will have to be used quickly because when we pick them the stems come out and take a piece of the rind with them. These sadly will go bad in a week or so. Lemon bars anyone?
