There’s nothing like a refreshing glass of lemonade on a hot summer day. This lemonade is smooth going down. #GlobalApron 2024

NOTE: There’s a huge taste difference in fresh squeezed and store bought lemon juice, like Realemon. It tastes kinda wonky. I use lemon juice from my tree that I squeezed and froze.

I love to bake sweet stuff, with a bit of savory tasty cooking thrown into the mix. Just good ol’ southern cuisine. Most of my recipes were handed down from my Great & Grand Grannies. If they didn’t grow it or raise it, it wasn’t eaten. My hubby and I have alot of food allergies so it gets challenging sometimes to make things that we both can eat. Neither of us can eat shellfish, which is sad, considering where we live, cuz it’s everywhere! Y’all won’t find any shellfish /saltwater fish recipes here. Some fresh water fishes, maybe. Hope y’all enjoy my recipes!
