Homewatch: The Lemon Tree
6/9/09 12:37I haz trimd it.
It almost won, but the world is safe for another year. The damned tree grows in every imaginable direction, and it grows fast, so once a year I give it the equivalent of a buzz cut. Tomorrow I may try to make candied lemon peel, a process which has never worked out well for me, and which I keep trying.
Score: Me 1, Lemon Tree 0. For this year, anyway. I'll figure out what to do with the mountain of lemon tree clippings after I return from the dog park with the Moldavian Leaping Hound.
