So…does @smcgathyfay have like 17 join anniversaries now and counting? Or are those more like random renewed days?

Extra Cake for you

[Jules]

Happiest of Birthdays @markevans36301!
Did I get firsties?

[markevans36301]

Yes, you stayed up late and got firsties.

Funny, I don’t feel but a day older than yesterday!

60 is going to be better than 59 was, I can feel it!

[Xabbess]

Hey…I’m up late, too…dibbies on 2nds! Wishing you a great birthday, Mark…and many happy returns of the day. 60 will be great. I’d love to be 60 again!

Another birthday, @cmreeder! The day is nearly over, so hope it was a great one.

Happy Cakeday @evermorian!

[evermorian]

Thanks!

As I just mentioned in some other thread, I am, coincidentally, sitting here eating Meyer lemon olive oil cake.

[Jules]

Now I’m hungry.

[evermorian]

There’s plenty left! Feel free to drop by.

Bumper crop from my tree this year. I had to do something with them.

[Jules]

Love fresh lemon anything, , but my lemon tree died in a freeze a couple of years back.
(Coincidentally, i had to go out this morning and harvest the last of the grapefruit 'cause we’ve got another freeze headed this way.)

Eat a slice for me.

[evermorian]

I’m on it! (Along with a second pot of tea.)

Sorry to hear about your lemon tree. Mine’s a good size now but, I still covered it all 5 nights it has come close to freezing this winter. I have a now-five-foot-tall start from a regular lemon tree going, too.

Aside from the lemon cakes, the Meyer limoncello is almost ready to bottle. I fermented/preserved half a gallon slices and, stashed a gallon or so of juice, frozen in heart-shaped chunks (since that was the most convenient silicon tray) for future use. Now I just have to figure out what to do with the other 80+ lemons …

[Jules]

Mine was a ponderosa…I only got from six to a dozen lemons from it a year.

But they looked like this:

Holy smokes!
