My favorite use for lemons is to halve them, sprinkle sea salt on my chopping block, and scrub it down using the lemon to scrub the salt in. The salt and lemon bleach everything, the coarse salt scrubs, and the surface is clean with no icky chemical nastness.
Ooh, I like that. I may have to try it.
I am a big fan of lemon. I don't eat them straight, but other than that. Every now and then they sell lemon fruit drink here (which is awesome as long as it's not too sweet), but it always gets discontinued and winds up tasting of betrayal.
I really got the perfect blend of the family's noses, which is lucky, because both are pretty strongly expressed. Most of my maternal cousins have my mom's nose, and Dad's side...yeah, them too. Dad's side tends to...roman? I think? The maternal side is a bit of an aggressive ski jump. I got the bridge from mom's and the small end from dad's. I like it.
I'm tahred tonight.

I am on Team Lemon. For people who were wondering.
I also like my nose fine, especially given many of the alternatives in my family.
I miss having two productive lemon trees in my backyard, and a lime in the front yard. So easy to indulge when the mood cried lemon! Now I'm horrible. I'll buy a few at the store and 1 or 2 of them always end up not getting used and turning gross.
Kat, didn't get an email.
I love bon bon.
mac crawled on the floor in a class today and acted like a dog.

were telling him to behave. OMG TO KILL ME NOW.
I love lemon. I'll occasionally have a shot of straight lemon juice, but not very often. It's bracing.
When my family lived in Baton Rouge, my grandmother would send Meyer lemons from her tree in every package she mailed to us, and we'd pack lemons amongst our clothes returning from visits. I always think luggage should smell of lemons.
I enjoy lemons. Team Lemon makes me think of a line from something I just watched where someone said, "... this is not Team Jacob or Team Edward," and now I can't remember what it was, and it's driving me a little nuts. Aging brain is a pain.
