Jim's parents have a lemon tree and every year they share! I think that I am the only one who actually asks for any lemons and by so doing, end up with about 100. I use about six over a weeks time to squeeze in my diet coke and then about another 6 to make lemon bars and unfortunately the rest go to waste. Oh waite, my boys have lemon wars so it's not a total waste. Well this year I was determined not to waste one lemon so JJ and I spent one whole Saturday juicing lots and lots of lemons. We got enough juice to make about 10 pitchers of fresh lemonade. But during the spring ice/wind/snow storms we didn't seem to have much use for fresh lemonade. So we froze the juice. I can't wait for summer when I can sit on my front porch and sip the fruits of our labor!

Wow! That is a lot of lemons! Good thing you have little JJ to help out.
yum! I love eating lemons and salt! I know I am probably weird. Monica and I used to go get a cup of crushed ice at the station and then squeeze lemon juice on it and add some salt. It was seriously the best! Try it sometime!
Yum. You're going to have to definetly share with me this summer.
Colby told me that they did have a lemon war when we were there, so some did go to waste!!
And are you really gonna sit on your front porch and drink lemonade? Will you wait until I am there to do so? Because it seems like whenever we come down you are so busy that we enver even see you. So please wait for us to drink you LITTLE lemonade!!
Thanks. Love ya. ~April
