A Little Bit of Sunshine....

My favorite crop from our garden is finally ready!

When everything else in the garden is brown and dormant, my citrus trees light up, competing with my Christmas tree.

Out of the ten citrus trees we have, my two Meyer lemon trees are my absolute favorite.  Each tree brings us hundred of lemons every year; plenty to use for making limoncello, lemon bars, or just a hot cup of tea.  They are also wonderful gifts for friends, and I'm happy to share a little big of sunshine with everyone. 

Think of planting one of these in your garden this year, and your winter will never be dark and dreary!
