Weird things I can't find a better place for!

I must state again.... the lemon isn't worth consuming I don't think.  Much more interesting as a curiosity at this point.  Have also got (normal I think) both blood oranges and lemonades ripening at the moment, although the lemonade tree is still quite small and only has a couple of fruit on it.

Oh, shush, Paul, don't spoil our happy dreams about what to do with this mega-lemon!  

Not that I am surprised that a huge fruit like that is likely not to be very tasty.... I was given a gift of a huge prize-winning leek once....  it was horrible, no decent flavour at all

Maggi,

I am happy to donate it to the SRGC if you'd like to raffle it off to one of the forumers, or give it as a door prize or something?

So that's where 'he who must not be named' ended up?

David, Neenish Tarts are little tarts (about 4 bites max). A short (sweet) pastry case with a lemon filling, and one half of the top smeared over with a chocolate icing so that they are half choc and half lemon. Very scrumptious. A little bit tricky or fiddly to make but well worth the time and effort. The recipe has been requested. Coming to a site near you (this one) later in the day.

Anthony,

It does look a bit like the big V doesn't it.  Maybe I should try selling it on Ebay as Harry Potter memorabilia?    Heck, if you can buy a piece of toast that has the imprint of the virgin mary in the butter, what price Voldermort in a lemon?

Great item, trouble is I can almost taste the lemon meringue pie already.  With a lemon that big you'd only need one.

Lemon meringue pie? Who on earth eats lemon meringue pie?

I do if someone make some

I agree, especially if the meringue is made properly and the pie is hot.

[Ragged Robin]

...and the pastry is crispy with whispers of meringue golden on top and a shot of lemon, sweet and sour MMMMMMmmmmmmmm

It's OK if the 'C' word is not mentioned.

[Paul T]

Anthony,

But Cliff just mentioned the C word..... now there'll be trouble! 

I must provide an updated pic of the lemon that started this whole thing..... it's gaining more character as it matures.

Don't worry, Folks, I have taken my equivalent of a 

so, all is well........
