Where Lemonade is Made by gardenfolk

Where Lemonade is Made

We are living in a world today
where lemonade is made
from artificial flavors & furniture polish
is made from real lemons.
...Alfred E. Newman

Our Meyer lemon tree has quite a few lemons this year. However, they will not be ready until January 2023. That is why they are still green instead of yellow.

I moved photos around to make room for Queen Elizabeth on her final day, 9-8-2022.

Hoping to get my laptop back today.

We Californians are so fortunate to have a plentiful supply of citrus fruit, and for us, it's ready about the time we return home for the winter!

@helenhall Haha. Definitely lemonade, lemon bars and lemon cake! I wouldn’t waste them in a furniture polish…they are too delicious!!! :)

@beryl Yes! They will turn to an orange/yellow. They are so good! Right now they look like limes…which I also love. :)

A lovely capture of the fruit .I love the sharp flavour of lemon dishes but these sound lovely I would make a lemon meringue pie with them.
