I’m carrying a little bit of extra baggage at the moment
Came home with a few extra kilos
that I didn’t take out of the country with me
so I’m back to walking the streets again
It does give me a chance to look at gardens as I pass by
and when I saw this Lemon tree hanging over the fence
I remembered a job that was waiting for me at home
Sqeezing the lemons I’d been given over a week ago
then freezing them in small portions
As you see below I don’t use ice cube trays
I find they are too small
so what I do use is the ‘egg tray’ from the fridge
as I find the holes are just the right size
Job started – grated some of the peel later
(‘cose I didn’t remember till I’d actually finished)
A little trick is to pop the lemons in the microwave for a few seconds
to warm them up
That way you get loads more juice
When I’d finished there was enough to fill the tray more than twice
I like a glass of hot water with fresh lemon juice first thing in the morning
or hot water, lemon juice and honey if we aren’t feeling too good
