You did the work and you can feel great rewarding yourself with a nice bubble bath and fresh lemonade... enjoying the "fruits" of your labor. (I know, horrible, but it had to be said.)

I zest all my lemons first and then juice them. I have a quart bag of zest and it works as well as the fresh. Always handy. Great in baked items! Isn't it a great feeling fixing something yourself.

It's one of those things that seems like it should be obvious but right now I'm shaking my head in disbelief and asking myself "why didn't I think of that?!" Have a great Thursday!!
