scent of green bananas - lemons

You could be like Santos of Scent of Green Bananas, and well, go bananas.

Santos, who blogs regularly from Guam, is on a little holiday, and when she is in LA, she blogs from her LA-based blog, Meet Me at the Corner of Third and Fairfax. Apparently, Santos fell into a lemony thicket, and has crates and crates of lemons. The products of her first crate of lemons are a luscious lemon curd which would be a serious overdose if spread on the Basil-Lemon Peel Sugar-crusted French Lemon Pound Cake. Overdose of lemons? Who am I kidding. Bring it on!

Maybe it's too low-brow, but where's the lemonade? =P My folks have a prolific lemon tree, from which I cull bags and bags of lemons each year. Next to mugicha (boricha), lemonade is the one drink I associate most with summer.

The avocado-topped custard also looks fantastic.

Great photos on both posts, by the way. Your own?
