My accidental 30 eggs has now become four batches of lemon curd

[melissa-dallas]

I canned 9 jars and the last batch is going to be a tart on Thanksgiving. I don't CARE if it isn't very seasonal.

Niiiice!

My MIL always made lemon meringue pies for Thanksgiving and there was never any left. Lemon is very refreshing after a big meal.

Good job Melissa. Now for some gold-bordered labels for your jars with your name on them

 

[melissa-dallas]

I looked at Office Depot for round labels today and they didn't have them but I'm just going

to give most of it to my Mom & Sister, so really only had about three jars I want to do something with.

Make some scones, some clotted cream, and invite your neighborns to tea!

I believe lemon curd has no season. enjoy!

 

[melissa-dallas]

Actually, the three jars I'm keeping are going to become small gifts in baskets

with a jar of curd, a fancy scone mix, Twinings tea and a pretty tea towel.

I'm chiming in late here, but did you know there were round, jar labels

online that you can print on your own computer for all different occasions? I saw them the other day - some turkey ones for Thanksgiving, but I'm sure there are Christmas ones floating around out there too.

I really like to give baskets for gifts, and yours sounds wonderful!!

P.S. It's an Adobe Acrobat Document, so I can't post a link here, but

I can send you the attachment if you want it. Just email me at dawndo4@graffiti.net . I can't find it when I do a search at that page either, and I don't know how I found it the first time! ;o)

 

[dawnnys]

Maybe this will work...

Hmm, I think I might have found it here at Eat after someone posted a link to it a little while ago. Yes, it was GayR's post from a couple of weeks ago...

a mind is a terrible thing to waste! ;o)

Print them on sticky blank labels and you'd have a really cute jar...

LOL. I went through 24 eggs last night making Chess Pies for Thanksgiving...

and boy did the house smell good when they were baking.

I'm with Ang, any season is lemon curd season. A very special gift any time of year.

Fun Link Dawn. Is there a way to edit an adobe file? There were some fun recipes, but would edit

for my recipe. Any thoughts? Either way, the site gave me some fun ideas for Christmas. Current thinking the hummus on the cutting board with Pita. I know my neighbors would like it, just never thought of it!
Thanks again for the link~
Best,
Barb

 

[dawnnys]

Are there Abobe files with recipes there? I didn't see them. No, I know of no

way to edit an Adobe file - unless you put it in Photo Editor? Would that work? I've never tried, but would be interested in knowing if you do.

 

[dawnnys]

Maybe - see this link:

I have 36 in my fridge and I haven't the foggiest why? I've already made my cheesecakes!

Maybe it's to make a nice Turkey Cobb Salad post-turkey-day? smileys/wink.gif

 

[barb_b]
