When Life Give You Lemons...


Pour yourself a glass of fresh squeezed strawberry lemonade, 
cut a slice of yummy lemon braid bread and sit back and enjoy!

My friend gave me a bunch of lemons and I found these recipes and decided to give them a try and let me tell you they were delicious! I used this recipe for the lemonade and just pureed some strawberries to add to it. I I found the recipe for the lemon braid here & here on King Arthur Flour, they have tons of great recipes on their site and their blog you should really check them out! Their recipe calls for lemon curd but I didn't have any and didn't want to go buy it so I used this recipe to make my own and it was very easy too! So go try it out and I promise you won't pull a sour face!
