Lemon Harvest

This is a post that hardly needs words-if only I could share the smell with you! This is the first lemon from our Ponderosa Lemon tree-it is the only one for this season but there are three more growing for next year-can't wait! (The lemon of this tree grow to be supersized-everything grew bigger on the Ponderosa ranch I guess....hence the name of this beauty.) I saved the slices to use for garnish but squeezed the rest of the lemon for juice; it yielded a pint of juice just squeezing by hand. We are going to have lemonade for dinner tonight! We'd love to have you stop in for a glass!

Bill and I also picked three Ruby Red Grapefruits from his tree-I normally don't like the sour fruit but I was pleasantly surprised by its sweetness-before I knew it, we had eaten the whole thing when I thought to take a picture, it was way too late. I will take a picture of one tomorrow just before we devour it!
