Our Lemon Tree

As we noted earlier in the year, we have a lemon tree in the backyard and it seems to be the fruit bearing season just now. Our friend and neighbor, Mary, also has a lemon tree and she has been making lemon poppy seed cakes for us of late. She inspired Mave and Kuno to collect lemons from our tree and they have been making fresh lemonade daily. Many people seem to have fruit trees in their gardens. When we went to Jose and Leps' house in January we admired their many fruit trees: avocados, oranges and limes, mangos, figs, pomegranates, and more. Leloba has given us guavas from her garden. We are being spoiled by all of the fresh and flavorful produce, even from the grocery store.
