When Life Hands You Lemons---


Each morning I plan the "job of the day". It may be to do basic household chores, finish a good book or even watch Oprah. On one occasion we spent the entire day buying a chicken! Yesterday a neighbor presented the DH with some fresh lemons and the dreaded question was asked, "Can you make a pie?" Well, that became my job of the day. Making a lemon pie from scratch is no small chore. By the time I made the crust, squeezed and zested the lemons, beat the eggs, cooked the filling and made the meringue, half the morning was gone. It was delicious but the next time life hands me lemons, I'll say thanks but no thanks.
