Hello, Dear Ones!
I pray you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
We sure did and guess what?
Yesterday was my birthday!
I turned the ripe old age of 61!
But in my heart I still feel like a youngster.
Anyway...I wanted to share with you what God gave me for my birthday...
LEMONS!!
We have a lemon tree out in the backyard and the fruit doesn't usually ripen until December around Christmas time. But this year they were ready on my birthday!
So many lemons and they needed a bath.
I thought I would make some lemonade!
I cut my lemons into and used my old juicer to gather my lemon juice.
I used a strainer to catch the seeds and pulp.
Almost there.
Now I can enjoy a nice glass of fresh lemonade.
Yummy!
Lemonade is not just for summertime.
Thank you,God, for my birthday present!
Here's my recipe if you'd like it::
Lemonade
5 cups of water
I cup of lemon juice
1 cup of sugar
Combine and stir. Easy peasy and you can always used bottled lemon juice, but fresh is always better.
Be a bunch of sweeties,
Shelia :)
I leave you with a little Note Song ~
