(my computer laptop is dying a slow and painful death…it won’t work plugged in – over heats in 2 minutes and hangs – and my battery only lasts 20 minutes…so I am VERY slow at replying to comments right now. don’t think I am being rude if I don’t make it over to your site quickly…I will get there!)
Have you noticed that bottled lemon juice is okay in a pinch but that it doesn’t hold a candle to fresh lemon juice? Then, have you ever compared store bought lemons to lemons right off of a tree? Fresher really is better. Last winter, my husband brought me a big bag of lemons from a tree on one of his properties in Florida. I had so much fun baking with them. We also consumed a lot of fresh lemonade. It brought a little bit of sunshine to the dreariness of winter. During my lemon fest, I introduced my family to old fashioned Lemon Pudding. It goes into the pan all liquidy and by the time it’s done baking, there is a nice cake layer on top and a gooey under layer that keeps you going back for “just a little bit more.” I am looking forward to trying it out with oranges next winter.
