Oooooh, the broiled Meyer lemon sounds like a great accompaniment to all the fat ducks we eat. And we've got a Meyer lemon tree in our back yard, so gobs and gobs of 'em to play with.

First ... I've just cleared an area for a lemon tree now that I actually have the space and live somewhere that they thrive. So excited! I ADORE lemons. Will probably put in a key lime or two as well ... but that will come later.

So here's my question: I've made limoncello with both vodka and Everclear, and my daughter (who enjoyed limoncello probably more than she should have while studying in Italy) said that the Everclear is closer to what she drank in Florence, in both the milky appearance and taste. Thoughts on that?

Was drinking a lemon tea when I sat down to go through emails, etc., so I caught this at the perfect time. It has inspired me to perhaps candy some lemon peel this afternoon. I've done orange for the filling for Italian fig cookies, but have never done this with lemon. Very excited!
