Lemon Zest: More Than 175 Recipes with a Twist

This looks like an exciting recipe book by Lori Longbothom on Amazon. Customers who reviewed it wrote that all the recipes they tried were fabulous and gave it 5 stars.

With some delicious dishes like Zesty Summertime Garden Soup”, “Lemon and Parsley Baked Eggs”, and “Pork Tenderloin with Lemons and Fennel”, this looks like the perfect book for lemon lovers!

Gems

Nutraj is a fine collection of jewelry on etsy. Made by a mom who is a student and an avid tennis player, in Chapel Hill. I love these lemon quartz earrings- they are so juicy- and they are only $13.


This necklace is called Crush and it has a light pink briolette bead of Chalcedony on an oxidized chain. (Very reasonable at $18.)

Lemon muffins



I thought if I am going to write about lemons and lemon yellow goodies, I would also include a recipe! This is supposed to be a good lemon recipe, especially if you add more lemon juice and zest. Try it and tell me how they turn out. If they are delicious, they would be perfect to make and share at work.

I love lemons!

I would like to start with lemon yellow crafts. This is a lovely set of 5 letterpress cards available in the Etsy shop Pressure Letterpress. These are made on a vintage Chandler & Price Pilot Press. Don’t you adore letterpress stationary?

Welcome!

Hello blog readers…

Welcome to Lemonsweet, the blog about cool crafts, handmade items, art and great gifts from around the internet. All my picks are under $50, with the exception of occasional splurges on lighting or jewelry. The items I find are not mass produced or mass marketed. Some are one-of-a-kind. Many are whimsical or just plain silly, and they are all fabulous!

Keep checking back and let me know what you think of the picks, or if you find anything fabulous you’d like to share!
