When life gives you lemons...









For mom's last meal, we thought we'd make it nice - could have been her last meal on earth considering the flight she had ahead of her. It was about 90 degrees outside, so I made REAL lemonade, puts me in the summer mood. All you do is cut up about 6 lemons, take seeds out, pour 1 1/2 c. sugar, add a sprig of mint or two and let sit for 20 minutes. Then remove the mint, mash it all up, pour 2 quarts of water over it, replace mint and serve over ice...it's such a great summer treat and smells wonderful. For the rest of the meal we had spinach craisens salad, potatoe salad and New York steaks OH AND homemade bread with that great jam...what a feast, none of us ate the rest of the day:) Grammy spoiled us rotten while she was here, we had a wonderful time - she sure loves those grandbabies.
