Over the weekend, I received a call from my husband's aunt and tells me: "The lemon tree drops, want to come and get some?". I like citrus and I have a weakness for lemons, I use them for almost everything.
So do not even think, I went to her house in search of lemons.
Arriving there, I asked for a staircase and cut my own lemons. The tree was still with many flowers and up there with the wind in my face, I felt a splendid aroma of lemon flowers and fragrant fresh lemons and I knew would be very juicy.
With so many fresh lemons I made ice cream and these lemon squares,very creamy and delicious. I hope you enjoy and have very good week.
