petting cats
picking lemons
making lemon marmalade (thanks for the recipe susan w.)
watching shooting stars from my driveway
getting ready to plant a peach/nectarine cocktail tree in my front yard (!)
(all i'm saying about cocktail trees is this: waahuh?)

Maryann: I don’t know what those circles are for but whatever it is you must share with us.

Well, humph! Maybe to that old fogey it’s passe’, but not to this old fogey…absolutely love the stuff, anything citrusy (new word?) is loved by by me. Lemon curd, Lemon Meringue pie, lemon bars, lemon cake, lemonade, you name it, I love it. So phooey on the old goat…I’m off to have some marmalade on english muffin and a cuppa…just bought a lovely blend from a new-to-me tea shop in the Fashion Show Mall on the Strip in Las Vegas, should any of you come for a visit…called TEAVANA…very Zen, heavenly tea.

My whole house smells of oranges since yesterday when I made Seville orange marmalade – very bitter, just the way we like it.
Is your lemon version very clear with only shreds of zest? Or do you go for the no-nonsense chunky variety?
I read recently some food writer’s opinion that marmalade is ‘out-dated and rather old fogey-ish.’ Huh!!
Love your lemons…so jealous 😉 I’ve got a great Chicken Picata recipe that uses lemons…mmmm
A peach nectarine cocktail tree–like the sound of it. What are you creating in that top photo?
Love those rounds!! Perhaps a Martha Stewart circle cutter found its way to you for Christmas???
