...and by life, I mean my in-laws.
...and by lemons, I mean lemons.
What did you think I meant? Bah ha ha!
My in-laws went out of town, and before they left they gave me a huge bag of lemons!YUM!!!
They also let me borrow their amazing citrus juicer!
Check this thing out! It is amazing.
When we have producing lemon trees I will definitely be purchasing one of these bad boys.
This is what I usually use. Yeah, I know. Sad.
Looking at them side by side made me think of this and laugh.
Remember the Hefty bag commercial? Ha!
I am hearing the voices now.
I juiced the lemons and froze the juice in ice cube trays.
(My mother-in-law taught me this tip)
Each cube is about 2 Tablespoons of juice.
Once frozen put in labeled freezer bags.
Now I have fresh lemon for my ice water...just toss 1 cube into a bottle of water.
I drink so much more water this way;)
I love {LEMONS}!
Don't throw these away!
I will tell you why tomorrow.

I LOVE love love this idea! Thank you! I just started Weight Watchers, hoping to lose about 20-30 lbs. and I'm drinking way more water. I love lemon in my water so this will help a ton in drinking water!
SUPER GOOD idea! We all should drink more water and this would make me be much happier to do it! Guess what I have to go out and buy now? No, not a juicer ... an ice cube tray! I'm clicking to follow ... jules

Brilliant idea! I freeze the mint growing on my patio in ice cube trays for the same purpose.
Great Tip about the lemon water... thanks!
I really need to invest in a real juicer! Thanks for the tip!

Amy, this is such a great idea! I've been having so much fun browsing around your site. So glad I came across your blog. I'm a new follower.
I'm going to have to look into a hefty juicer. I have kidney stones and need to drink more than 3 litres of water with 3 ounces of lemon juice each day. The juicer and your freezing tips will work out well. Thanks!
That's an awesome idea! I'm going to have to do that. Thanks a bunch for sharing.
such a great idea! I guess I will have to use my wimpy juicer :)
Ooh Great idea thanks for sharing! My Mom will love this one. Found you on Lil' Luna

Awesome idea! I would totally use this in the summertime with iced tea so it didn't get watered down!
Such a great idea and a good time saving trick!

I love that you are trying to get rid of all the chemicals. They scary me so bad. Thanks for all of the great ideas with what to do with Lemons.
