When your tree gives you lemoms!

So my sweet daughter woke up and desired to make a lemon meringue pie. I was not in the mood, nor did I want to put the time, plus I am still working out my caffeine free life and still experiencing the head aches. I told her if you find a recipe that includes every thing we have in house and I don't need to go to the store we can do it.

She found a recipe! OYE! So we had everything she needed! NO, screamed in my head! We had the lemons on the tree, we had the eggs from our hens, and we had all the other ingredients. She was in heaven, then she realized how tedious the recipe was, yes I  made her follow through.

Here are the pictures:

 Here is my baby getting the home grown lemon juice.

 Ok,our lemon curd took 1 hour longer than the recipe called for, I think because we used raw unbleached sugar, so worth it.
 You missed the egg shots because the fingers were a mess!!!

 The finished product!


...and it was yummy!
