Bright zesty lemons, how zingy, bright and colourful, cheerful and sunny. Not Novemberish at all are they?
So why the lemons you ask. Well lemons were going cheap this weekend so I bought some to make things with.
What is she doing here? lemons squeezed, juice removed.
Oh God, now she'ss blitzing the poor things. Is there nothing more grim than a foor processor in action. All knives, speed, cutting - eugh, worse than a halloween movie.
The outcome of the bladed massacre. Lemon smash.
It gets worse, now she throws us into a lake and heats the water up.
Has she no compassion, doesn't she realise it's boiling in here. Who asked for a sauna?
What now! Poured into a net and left to hang, to drip, drop by drop into a bowl.
Next morning we're exhausted, spent, all juice gone.
The reason for all this lemon mayhem, you tell me.
What was I making?
All ingredients are shown in the pix, just lemons and water.
Answer tomorrow and a prize to the winner.
Yellow, nice colour, specially at this time of year.

I'm guessing lemon marmalade...but no sugar...I'm stumped...except that at the local Asian grocery store they sell a lemon concoction like it that is used for tea? Okay, I give up!

Are you making a rinse liquid for blonde hair? Though Louise's household cleaner sounds great, too. How nice it would smell all around the house...

Are you making lemon curd? Whatever it ends up to be, it looks delicious. Lemons here at the grocery store are are 89 cents for each one! Have a lovely day.

Hmmm, not enough ingredients for Lemon Curd, poss lemonade but thats not particularly seasonal, Like the sound of lemon vodka I must say G!
I am inclined to go with a lemon preserve of somekind.
I'm giving this far too much thought, clearly I need to occupy my mind with more 'stuff'!
Take care

I think it is lemon concentrate for drinks and cooking.

Lemons have many uses and cleaning is a wide a varied option with this summery fruit, but I would guess that the liquid will be used as a hair rinse. Whatever you use it for I'm sure it will be fabulous! You've inspired me to go and make some home-made lemon curd, yum yum!!
Keep up the good work on the blog xx
