Lemons Yes Lemons

Still practicing with the camera. Came back from the supermarket with lemons and decided to take a picture of them. I can't seem to buy a bag of lemons, I have to pick them myself. Now I have to explain the intensity and meaning of lemons in our household. (see large)

I've been eating lemons since I was a little girl. My parents had a Peruvian restaurant and I use to attack the crate of tomatoes and lemons....I've been told. I grew up eating salad all the time. During pregnancy with all three babies I ate salads all the time. My babies came into the world craving tomatoes and lemon lol. No seriously when the babies were babies and I served dinner, they would attack the salad first and dinner last. No problem here making them eat vegetables. My kids (even now) ask me to make "the salad" which consist of romaine lettuce, house tomato, cucumber, red onion. The dressing is the key.....olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper and lots of mixing until its perfect. When I'm lazy we pull out the Italian or ranch dressing but its not the same.

Another dish we love is Peruvian Cheviche....omg to die for and it requires a ton of lemon juice. I mean we put lemon on everything.

Tomorrow is Easter Sunday and once again I've been designated to bring the salad.

Happy Easter everyone!!!!
