Lovin' Lemons

Brown sugar lemonade. (I cheated and used lemon juice and the lemonade recipe on the back, but added brown sugar instead of white sugar, to taste.)


A lively, lovely lemon dress for my little lovely lady.

Lemon squares.

Crust:

1 cup flour
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup powdered sugar

Mix flour, butter, and sugar together with mixer. Be careful not to let mixture get too soft. Press into ungreased 8 x 8" pan, bringing crust 1/2" up side of pan. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes. Remove from oven.

Filling:

2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. lemon juice

Beat all ingredients together until fluffy (about 3 minutes). Pour filling over hot crust. Bake for approximately 25 minutes. When cooled, dust with powdered sugar.

Your house must smell gorgeous with that lemony smell.

Well done for making a beauty out of that chair. When I was in a hotel in Dublin, all the bedroom furniture was painted black. It looked so good with the Georgian mustard walls. Ever since then I thought that black furniture looked good. Well done.

i want to try every one of these! I have that fabric in my stash, so I could whip up a little shirt for my girl...that is if I could rip myself away from my quilts for a few minutes. :)

my husband loves lemon bars...I'll have to make a pan (or two) for him soon. thanks for sharing the recipe.
