I love lemons

before I first went to BYU I made a quilt -- "yellow snow" -- which was made of lots of different simple yellow fabrics. and white trimming. but mostly it was yellow. i loved it for years. i still love it. yellow has been a favorite color for most of my life. And then there's the lemon. I don't love lemonade. or lemon poppy seed cake. i prefer almond. but i love the look and the idea of lemons. i like to cook with them -- squeezing them into something sauteeing, or zesting them -- it's just gourmet-feeling. i always wanted sliced lemons floating in bowls of water for my wedding reception -- right now, i honestly can't remember if that happened. there may have just been floating flowers. last night ry took me to this restaurant - La Jolla Groves. i got so happy about the yellow linen napkins on the white linen tablecloths. i didn't want to leave. it was so pretty. the bathroom had the coolest faucet i have ever seen. and the food was divine. it was the best beef tenderloin i've ever tasted. how much do you think it would cost to build a real-looking pretend lemon tree in my kitchen?
