A Bowl Full of Lemons..

Hello my dears...How are you all? 
Here we are beginning another new week that the Lord has blessed us with..

 I had wanted to start this week with something a bit creative but our hydro was off ALL day..
Terry had to go away so I went with him ... grin.. 
Alas... I did not accomplish a whole lot.. 

Tonight I was making supper and did up a salad.. 
(we are trying to eat more of them)   Must be January.. grin.. 

Anyway, I made a INFUSED OIL  that I have been using for years and thought perhaps you might like the recipe..


Lemon Oil...

Take the zest off of two washed lemons..

Place in a small pot with 1 cup of olive or canola oil.. 

Place on your lowest heat and infuse until it just begins to simmer.. 

Turn off and cool.. Store in a jar.. 
A mason jar is great..

I just keep this on my counter .. 
The recipe says it will keep for a month but I find it never lasts that long.. 
Great over fish, salad and such..

For salad... 
I just pour a bit over and add a squeeze of lemon juice and some fresh herbs ..

I find that you only need a few veggies for a simple salad... 
Lettuce, onion, mushrooms and cucumbers for tonight..
Tomatoes are so expensive right now.. 
I used fresh rosemary from my window sill.. 

If you have a good dressing it makes all the difference.. 

As one of my friends once told me ... 
Only 3 veggies in that salad and I could lick the plate.. 
It must have been a good dressing.. grin.. 



Well, dear ladies that is all for tonight..

It has been a bit of a day if you know what I mean.. 

I think I shall make a nice cup of tea... 
Oh... for a nice cookie or square.. grin...
What kind would you like?  

I think I would like a SKOR BAR...

Have a very blessed week.. 

Let's pray for each other.. OK?
Love to you all..
