I wanted to give a shout out to some wonderful photographers I found on the Flickr.
This sweet lemon is taken by zerjavca.

I used this image for my favicon. It is just a simple, clean lemon and is just perfect. zerjavca is from Slovenia and you can see her other photos here.
This bright and cheery flower photo just makes my day!

pasilaly kindly allowed me to use this in the header of my blog. She is another great photographer on Flickr. Look at more of her flowers and landscapes here.

a.rud.beth took this gorgeous photo of a lemon slice. Wow! I love it! Check out her other pictures of fruit here. They will keep you cool this summer.
This beautiful photo is taken by my friend Angela, known as Twinmama on Flickr.
She takes glorious photos of her twins and of landscapes. They are dreamy and moody and I think she is very talented. See for yourself here. You can also read more about Angela on her blog slolane.
Also, if you want to have fun, explore flickr by typing in any topic you are interested in, or clicking on one of their tags. You will see millions of gorgeous photos of amazing people, places and things!
What better way to celebrate summer than rubbing lemon sugar all over your body and smelling like a lemon drink!

Lemon Sugar Scrub, $14, SugarLips
The product description says, “The texture of this sugar scrub is unique as the granules are finer than in most and the oil doesn’t separate from the sugar. It is more of a paste, really.”
This Etsy shop, SugarLips, features body sugars, lotions, toners and decadent body butters. The products are created by a skin care specialist and sound good enough to eat. Try the Coffee Bean Sugar Scrub, the Brown Sugar and Fig Vegan Body Butter, or the Grapefruit Facial Tonic. SugarLips says these products are as safe, effective and as gentle as possible, and you can contact her for more information about the ingredients.

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!

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 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?
