Brilliant Barter: Lemons for my Larder

Trade: My cheeses for your gorgeously perfect lemons off your tree?

Sure! What a trade!


Win win all the way. We're both smiling.


We don't have a lemon tree. We use a LOT of lemons in tea, and all sorts of wonderful dishes and concoctions. The fragrance of a freshly picked lemon is dizzyingly wonderful. Earlier this month at the farmer's market, I spied this gorgeous tree, heavily laden with golden orbs. 

Oooh, I was envious.

A tiny spark of an idea flickered.

I tentatively asked.

She smiled, delighted.

I am thrilled.
