Lemons

Today I ate the best lemon I have ever tasted! You might wonder, "why would you eat a lemon?" I was cutting it to put on my delectable Greek pita that I made with lemon-tangerine chicken, yogurt spread, tomatoes, avocados, and olives. I squirted a bit on the pita for a little zest, and then put some in my water (Richland water is not what I would call 'pristine'). The water tasted soo sweet! So I licked the lemon with my tongue, and my taste buds were pleasantly surprised. I didn't get that sour zap that I usually expect, but rather a sweet flavor that was as sweet as a tangerine, but with a distinctive lemon flavor!
I remember someone telling me that fresh lemons are actually sweet, but I had no idea the delicious flavor they had!
Moral of the story: If life gives you lemons and they are store-bought and you live some-where where they have to ship them, they will most likely be sour....but every 27 years or so you might get a sweet one, and when you do, ENJOY IT!
