Thank Goodness it's Friday!!!

I've seen a few TGIF posts around Blogland this afternoon and I have to agree....THANK GOODNESS IT'S FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!  But, I have Max's First Birthday Party and Christening this Sunday so I'll be at it again running around like crazy.  Thank goodness it's just the family coming.  I am attempting to cook a cake one of my client's recommended to me tomorrow for Sunday so if it works out I'll be sure to post it.  I also think I need to do something with these lemons I've had sitting in this basket on our dining table for a couple of weeks... 

Have a great weekend!

Go the lemon butter, Anna! Or lemon meringue. Or even better ... preserved lemons. So, SO! Yummy! From your own tree?

Have a great week end! Sounds like a busy one! What about lemon curd or homemade lemon cordial?
Good luck with the cake.....KGx

Those lemons look so beautiful in that basket... but I believe perhaps it's time to make citron presse! A deliciously refreshing way to use up all those lemons :)

You're so lucky to live where lemons grow in the garden! I'd recommend preserving them in salt, and then banging them in all sorts of gravies, dressings and sauces, with fish and best of all, in a roast chicken! Yum!

I have a great recipe my grandmother gave me for lemon squash.
You add a cup of sugar for each cup of lemon juice. And when you're done you add another cup of sugar.(to make it more sweet) You stir it and let the sugar dissolve.
You keep it in the fridge and you serve it cold by pouring a bit of lemon squash and lots of cold water and ice!
