Aren't weddings just absolutely brilliant and exhausting? Well, I think I have recovered from the late nights and early mornings and am back on my game. Wow, do I sound old or what?!?
As I sit down to type this latest post I am listening to Sara Bareilles newest album Kaleidoscope Heart (which I would totally recommend, it's really awesome) and the smell of lemons is wafting through the air of our little home. It smells absolutely DELICIOUS! Holy moly, I love lemons...especially baking lemons!
This summer my mom's really good friend, Judi, threw me an incredible bridal shower in southern California. It was so fun being with family and lifelong family friends celebrating my upcoming marriage to Jake. Anyways, she made the most incredible lemon square bars I have ever had in my entire life. They were seriously addicting. So my sweet treat to you today is this fantastic recipe. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
