When life hands you lemons ...

A few friends on facebook have "liked" a page called "Unless life also gives you water and sugar, your lemonade's gonna suck." My question is, why does life have to hand you everything? Where is your contribution to make your life NOT suck? That's all I have to say about that ...

On a different note, a few years ago, someone put together a potluck party with lemons as the theme. I loved it! What comes to mind when you think about foods that include lemons? Lemondade, lemon bars, lemon pie, lemon cookies ... mostly desserts, right? Oh, I was so wrong! I found a recipe for lemon couscous, someone brought a tasty lemon chicken pasta dish ... I can't remember what all were brought to the table, but there were so much more than just desserts. Lesson learned that day -- when life hands you lemons, yes, you can make lemonades, but why stop there? Even with lemons, you can make a feast.
