Today’s post is about preparing dessert for Easter Sunday. Part of the dessert, anyway.
It has been over a year since I have been following the growth of the lemons on my dwarf lemon tree. Recently I blogged about how I thought they were ripe, and discussing what I should do with my largest crop of lemons — 4.
