Lemon Twist

We have two lemon trees... which is a little absurd since we hardly use lemons.

Just before we moved back to Hawaii, mom said she wanted a lemon tree to make her much asked for Lemon Chicken recipe. So Art and I planted one in the back yard. It didn't do well so while we were back on the mainland my brother planted one in the front yard.

Now both trees are producing lemons... much more than we need. Luckily, there's a lot of people who want lemons so we're always sharing them.

The trees always produce round lemons, until recently.

This is the first time we've gotten this shape.

My brother says it reminds him of a bird.

OK...

I can sort of see the bird.

Maybe I should have kept it and peeled it to see what it looked like on the inside.

Too late.

I gave it to my cousin, Walt who'd stopped by to drop off some coffee he's roasted himself for Art.

Ohhh... I gave him a bag of nice looking lemons too.
