Hello, so how is your week going? Hope well, here busy busy,? exciting progress is being made on the “lower level” aka basement. I told my husband I feel like I am building a house all over again. I said never again<\/em> and I really meant it. Let’s face it you don’t deal with stress the same way you do in your40’s\/50’s as you did when you were 22!<\/p>\n

I feel like I am still getting over the toll that those four long years took, especially given that we thought<\/em> this was going to be a restoration not a new build. It felt like four years of my life was on hold, so I am anxious to get this done and never look at another construction site ever again!<\/p>\n

Anywho back to the subject at hand…..lemons. I love them, talk about bang for your buck. Not only are they beautiful in glasses, pitchers, on food and party tables but they are equally fabulous in big bowls and dishes for decor. So today a look at the versatile little lemon, the more the better!<\/p>\n

So….what do you think? Do you always? have lemons around? Does this have you thinking in a whole new way about the versatility of lemons? I sure got lots of ideas and am determined to create a beautiful table centered around lemons, maybe a luncheon or a small party, who knows.<\/p>\n

All I know is lemons are certainly multifunctional? and best part is they are so inexpensive……way less than flowers! If you have some ideas of your own, please share! Thank you for stopping by, wishing everyone a wonderful day, here the sun is shining though we aren’t getting past 40, spring is taking it’s time, but I am being patient! Until? next time……<\/p>\n
