On New Year's Day we drove up to Valencia to spend the day with my Aunt Cathy, Uncle Bruce, and my cousins. It was so much fun! I NEED to be around them more often. I always feel so loved and so at home.
Aunt Cathy has a lemon tree in her backyard and the lemons were plentiful (and oddly large!) so we picked a bunch and decided we would whip up some lemonade. Well, after washing, rolling (those lemons are slippery little suckers when wet!), juicing, and making a big sticky mess we ended up creating Fanny Farmer's Lemon Ice. It was delicious! Thanks to Aunt Cathy for introducing us to the well worn Fanny Farmer's cookbook and for allowing her lovely kitchen to be turned into lemonland for the afternoon.

Enjoying the fruits of our labor!
