My ending would be:
When life hands you lemons…do a happy dance and mix a martini!
I agree with the happy dance! I am definitely doing that since Kim at RG Bistro sent me some of her Meyer Lemons. Yay! They are sunshine on a snowy day here in Atlanta.
LOL!!! Just used this line in the title to one of my posts… my solution of course was to preserve them!!
After the Mexico trip though, I think the response needs to be changed to “grab the salt and tequila”!!!
Make a chicken piccata!
My favorite from the comments was “When life gives you melons, it means you’re dyslexic.”
When life gives you lemons, make lemon curd.
Because it’s a much better use of the lemon.

When life gives you Meyer lemons, collect the zest, the juice and freeze them, you never know when the baking mood will strike.
When live gives you lemons, take them, because, you know… free lemons!
When life hands you lemons, be thankful that you didn’t have to pay for them
Love it! We say that every time we pass by the citrus in the store and think of our lemons at home!
I say make Meyer lemon gelato! I love the recipe in Dessert by the Yard by Sherry Yard. Reminds me I was supposed to make some today and forgot! Will have to make some this weekend for sure, as both my Meyer lemon trees are full of lovely fruit. They are such treasures. I smile whenever I go pick fruit. Some great ideas above!
