Ok, sometimes I like to get 7 or 9 lemons to fill this pretty vase that Emily gave me as a wedding gift. The lemons look good and make the house smell fresh for a few days. Then, what do you do with all those extra lemons? I'm not a lemonade lady, so here are some tips:
- Cut the lemons in half, put down the sink and run your disposal. This will take away all the gross smells from what your husband or roommates have shoved down that thing!
- Cut the lemon in half and rub it all over your cutting board. I mean, we chop up onions constantly on that thing....one day it's gonna smell.
- I just saw on Barefoot Contessa (Food Network) that if you add lemon zest to sweets that it really brings out the flavor. So, add some lemon zest to a cake, danish or cookies that you are making.
- Do you ever get weird rings and stains around your tupperware? Well, rubbing lemons on it before you put it in the dishwasher is supposed to help with that.
Hope this helps with not wasting those lovely lemons. Of course, you can always make some yummy lemonade to consume by the pool!
