citrus gold
May 27, 2008
Wow, I knew citrus was awesome, but who knew there were 27 household uses for the little things (other than stuffing them in my mouth, I mean)?
Read all about it here!
Do you have any other favourite uses for this citrus gold?

Yes, I do have another use. Courtesy of my friend Donna. I take oranges and slice them, with skin on, along with any other almost ready to throw in the trash fruit (ie., apples, pomegranate, cranberries, etc.) and toss them into a saucepan to simmer on the stove. Add cinnamon sticks, cloves, nutmeg, vanilla, anything yummy like that and, Wa~la! You will have the best smelling house on the block.
P.S. Thanks for the help today. Turns out I put a bit of pressure on my sciatic nerve while doing yard work ~ translation: I’m old!

Mine is to keep cut fruits/veggies/herbs from browning. You can also use a vitamin C tablet dissolved in water to do the same job without the lemon-y taste, but honestly, why would you want to do that?

P.S.S. Sorry, I left out an important ingredient ~ Water! Add the fruit to “water” in the saucepan. I’m sure ya already knew that! Tee, hee.

wow! I feel jealous
I use lemon a lot for my food instead of vinegar. Do you like lemon bars/ lemon tart? I baked them and it was really good. I love lemon sorbet, lemon juice, too…
