Lemon Easter Eggs

An Easter repost from 2012.

Lemons and Easter go hand-in-hand in my home.  The burst of brightness from the citrus pairs beautifully with fresh spring vegetables.  As you can see from last Easter’s menu, lemon is featured heavily at my Easter brunch.

This year is no exception, but I stepped it up a notch when I realized that lemons and eggs are basically the same shape.  I broke out my hot glue gun (tiny pushpins would also work) and decorated my lemons to look like Easter eggs.  Easter ribbons and velour furniture pads made festive fun.  I’ll be growing pots of wheatgrass and tucking these lemon eggs into it for a centerpiece this year.  I hope you do to!
