My Blog

In our latest SOB installment, Charity chose – and lemon curd it was!  I won’t point out for too long that this was chosen around November or something (??) but with the holidays and other craziness, I just couldn’t get on the ball.  But the New Year is well underway and we’re back! 

I am only a honeymooner to the world of lemon curd, having only been involved in this love affair for about a year or two.  I would have to say that I am a real sucker for only a few things in the sweets world – deep chocolate flavor (duh), key lime, coconut, and anything with an amazing deep lemon flavor.  And maybe cheesecakes, and truffles, and pumpkin when the season is right… and … and… OKAY – so maybe not just a FEW things… but its fair to say that my love of all things lemon is way up there.  This curd definitely lit the palate.  It was outstanding!!  I made this, along with some mini cranberry and orange scones to give as a gift to the family that is watching our zoo of animals for us while we’re in San Fran.  As you’ll see in the pictures I upload once I return, I put the lemon curd in a cute wide mouth mason jar and plated the scones with it – so cute!

I’ll finish the post when I get back home and can load the pics – but wanted to get this up so I would have something already started when I return, and so Charity would know that I’m LEGIT!

I’ll also be posting the pics I take at my wedding cake decorating class while I’m here – SO EXCITED!

Have a great day!
