Interesting facts about Lemons
Interesting facts about Lemons
by Jan » Thu May 24, 2012 10:37 am
Hello everyone,
I found this article very interesting (especially as I grew the largest lemon ever this year - see my photo, below the article. Think you can grow a bigger one, try to beat it?).... At least I'm having fun - sort of sad... but fun .
The article is not entirely about Spain but interesting nevertheless. If you didn't read it in the Daily Telegraph April 2012, here's a copy- As always, click on the article until it's the size you need to read it:

Hi Jan. I dont have any proof to show you but I've seen bigger lemons that that. Did you hear about the 2 Spanish guy's in Asteria who found a mushroom that ways 6 Kilo's, thats like 3 bags of Tate & Lyle. That would be a good snack, Sos, Tomato and mushroom cob. Some one would have to help you pick it up!

I need proof Glyn !!
What is a Lemon posset Dot or am I being thick? I usually give my left-over lemons to our neighbour who is an amazing cook - I'm sure he would know what a Lemon posset is.
I would love to take them home but they are a bit heavy for the hand-luggage!
