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?

Last night we used some of your lemons with breaded broccoli:

Parboil broccoli florets (I recommend getting a whole head and trimming it yourself for this recipe) - just give them a quick soak in some boiling water until they turn bright green, then shock them in a bath of ice water. Dredge the broccoli in flour, dip in 2-3 eggs that have been whipped into an even color, then roll in panko. Fry in olive oil or (my recommendation) butter until golden brown, approximately 8-12 minutes, turning to get all sides (and the tops!). Salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley and squeeze lemon juice over the top just before serving. It's like... breaded shrimp for vegetarians. Delicious.

This also works with cauliflower!

BTW, I shared your message regarding the Bissell with LA and C- and there was much amusement. I'm glad it worked out for you :)

I need to finish up with it. I only got the bedroom done before Liz returned. But damn. It's like having a brand new bedroom.

See this is why I consider a steam cleaner and essential cleaning tool.

We still have a few good lemons to use, but we'd love more for X-mas. :)
