When life gives you lemons...

[ebonlock]

It took me about 5 minutes to pick these this afternoon, it didn't even put a dent in my heavily-laden tree

...beg your friends list for lemon-based recipes. Seriously, people, I'm up to my neck in the little yellow bastards and they just keep coming. So I'm asking you, my friends, for your favorite/family recipes or recipe ideas to use as many of these things as possible. It's that or give them to all my local friends for Xmas and nobody wants it to come to that, do they?

I just paid $3 for lemons and I would love more. What I used them for (note, BIG SUCCESS):

_Bourbon Furnace_

In a glass with an opening smaller than its largest diameter (like a snifter or a wine glass) put a dollop of honey and a cinnamon stick. Add a packet of apple cider powder. Squeeze in the juice of half a lemon. Heck, maybe a whole lemon. Pour in about a centimeter and a half of bourbon. Fill with hot water to about a centimeter and a half from the top. Stir and drink.

It is good for what ails ya.

That sounds delightful.

The next time you need lemons please contact me. Seriously, if mine aren't ripe there's another tree a couple houses down from me with a big "Free Lemons" sign on it. I can totally hook you up. Or I can give 'em to LA and you can pick them up from her when next you see her.
