Jabberwocky for 2005 January 27 (entry 0)

(2) Thu Jan 27 2005 18:09 Lemon Tree, Very Pretty: I made lemon bars to take to the placement essay reading in the morning. The lemon tree has been contributing its little heart out the last couple of months. They are getting very ripe, and it's time to bring them in and juice them out.

I was going to do that, but ever since I got up this morning I've been surviving by saying "IthinkIcanIthinkIcan". So I left a bunch on the tree and a colander full on the kitchen counter. Probably a couple of quarts of lemon juice left, all told.

This is a Meyer lemon, which you can't get in stores, and they are really yummy. Now that they are getting ripe, I've seen oranges that are yellower. The tree is starting to bud out for next year already.

No recent nearby earthquakes today, but one just happened in Cupertino.

Is that a song? What color are your lemons if your oranges are yellower? Really yellow? Green?
