I Lemon You…

Reasons To Heart Lemons…

-Sure way to become a professional model. Simply suck a lemon to obtain a “fierce” pucker face. What boytoy can resist a lemon pout? And no. Pretty sure he won’t think your cr.friggin.azy!

-They deter moths? What? Yeah. Supposedly better than moth balls. Have yet to experience a moth in my house. But in case yours is infested (which is Ew.) I thought I’d share this lil’ tip…

-Soothes a sore throat when added to a cup of warm tea. Pass the crumpets.

-Lemon juice + sun = natural blonde highlights

-They’re magic… Chuck one down the sink, grind er up, and voila! Last night’s chinese? Stench-be-gone!

-Softens your hide when sliced and added to your bath.

-Dare I mention the next reason? They relieve hemorrhoidal a’hem “issues” (which is another Ew.) This is where I draw the line _____. Don’t cross it.

-Claims to cure hiccups & queasiness – exactly how, I’m not quite sure.

-A friendly to my favorite drink – Lemonade!

Last but definitely not least… A sure winner winner from Barefoot Contessa’s chicken parmesan kickin’ dinner!

    Yum! I love this BC recipe and make it all the time – haven’t tried it with lemon pepper though. Sounds delish!

    Right up my alley! I make something similar all the time! I LOVE lemons! I try to keep them in the fridge at all times – as well as limes. I’m excited to try your home made vinegarette. Really enjoying your blog Miss! You’re doing a great job!

    I made this last night for dinner and loved it! I made my version GF, but the light lemon flavor made the dish pop. Delicious!
