What were you making, Su? Our landlady brought over some fragrant, juicy lemons yesterday, so I made some lemonade today with some. Not sure what I’ll use the rest for.
Granita. It’s become a family tradition ever since the boy-child was given some in a restaurant as a palate cleanser. He was about 7 or eight and liked it so much that when offered the dessert menu, he asked if he could have more of the Chardonnay granita instead. 😬
I’m slightly envious. Our lemon season has passed, and the only ones available are imported. Depending on how many you have, and whether you like middle eastern food, you could make preserved lemons. Or a lemon ginger cordial; great with fizzy water.

Good thought. I’d forgotten about those. Candied lemon peel?

Yes! I don’t use that much (perhaps because I never make it 🤔)

Su, you should be a food stylist. This is beautiful. Not sure what you are making, but I will gladly hold out my glass.

Chardonnay granita; my son’s favourite dessert. Most of it is destined for his shared-house Christmas dinner.

Not so little now. Twenty three in a few months — and towering over me (not that that’s difficult).
