Our lemon tree is burgeoning. We have lemons in all states of development from bud to flower to ripe fruit.

Make lemonade!

(I tried growing them in Florida, but every time they got to bearing fruit, we got a bad freeze.)

We freeze the lemon juice in ice cube trays. When we want lemonade we grab a few cubes, throw them in the jug with some water, and add just a touch of sugar.

So, with a big jug of lemonade in front of me and a freezer full of cubes, I got... lessee... three dozen more lemons to deal with. Hmm...

Our tree is like that, too, right now. I need to make some lemonage to use some of them up. Nice photo!

Very nice image. But, forget the lemonade, make whiskey sours.

We can't even give them away. Too many others in the neighborhood are giving away lemons too. If only I could invent a car that runs on lemon juice...

Thanks. In truth, the fruit did that all on its own. :-) I was just lucky enough to spot them.

That has a certain appeal, but this many lemons would make enough sours to keep me stewed for the rest of my life. Then in a few months, we'll have more lemons. Is there a national stockpile of whiskey sours that needs filling?
