My friend Laura blessed me with lots and lots of lemons, I had three huge bowls of lemons sitting around my house.
See?
However my little heart that beats baking couldn't let these lemons just sit around as decor, I had to use them. I have three uses for the lemons so far.
Lemon project #1 - ice cold with a slice of lemon, simple perfection in a glass

i love the taste of lemon and blueberries, lemon and raspberries, and just plain lemon.
Love all those lemons! Does your friend have a tree? Chicken + lemon is a really good combo too!
There is nothing better in the entire world than homemade lemon bars. Seriously, the BEST.
You are so creative. I would just use them as decor until they went bad. I'm not creative (or the best baker) like you!

fresh lemonade sounds sooooo great right about now..!
This is my go-to recipe when I can't find anything else for dinner, Giada's lemon spaghetti, http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/giada-de-laurentiis/lemon-spaghetti-recipe/index.html
Oh lemonade, it looks incredible and my mouth is watering! Try mixing some lemon juice with baking soda for a quick, natural teeth whitening. I did it this weekend and it was awesome!
Homemade lemonade sounds amazing! I have a juicer but haven't made homemade lemonade yet - it's going to need to happen soon :)

I completely want to buy tons of lemons! Too bad for me I can't really bake. And I don't like lemon in my water. But I can decorate with it :)
loooooooooove me some lemons. Have you had lemon chicken? that's super yummy.
homemade fresh lemonade is my most favorite thing EVER!
I'll take one of each!!
I'm so jealous. I feel like I never have enough lemons.They are so beautiful and perfect on/in everything. I wished I lived in a place where you can grow citrus.
Those homemade lemon bars look divine!
