Lemons of Life

‘When life hands you lemons – make lemonade!’

Don’t you just want to headslap the person when they trot out that little gem? Okay, so you can make lemonade but it really depends on the quality of those lemons as to the kind of lemonade you’re going to get. The lemons may look perfect and fresh on the outside, but inside they are rotten and wormy – not exactly working material for a drinkable beverage.

The best thing to do at that point is to chuck the whole mess into the garbage and head back to the market. Do your research on what markets would have the best quality of lemon, what do people think about the lemons at those markets, try the lemons at the various markets. You might get rotten ones again; then again you might get some decent ones that would make a great lemonade. The priority, however, should be do you really want lemonade?

Personally, I’m a fan of apple juice . . .
