I have been working on this recipe for about a month trying to get it just right. It’s been through half a dozen iterations with little tweaks each time and, finally, I think I’ve got it just right. They’re sweet, tender, sturdy, lemony, and taste like a spring day in the garden! My hockey team

Last year, I made seven-layer bars for my birthday and delivered them to people. The year before that, I made the world’s saddest attempt at a lemon cake, which was honestly pretty fitting for a birthday at the very beginning of lockdown when there was basically nothing available in the grocery stores, and going shopping

While we’re playing catch-up with the recipes I made and never sat down to write up, I may as well feature my 2021 holiday addition!

First and foremost: Sorry about the hiatus. I’ve been battling some mental health struggles and working myself to the bone trying to finish my backyard landscaping in time to get my onions, beans, peas, etc. in the ground in time.
