Dreaming of Spring Recipes


Many of us are still enduring frigid temperatures, and some of us are still covered in snow. This time of year, we get winter-weary. Will Spring ever come?

I needed a little warm weather encouragement this week, and I thought you might, too...so I put together this collection of my best Spring recipes. 

Put on your flip-flops and come dream of Spring with me! 


Spring is for lemon everything!
A lighter, fresher soup for Spring~
Quite possibly the best lemon loaf I have ever had.
Orange glazed salmon is citrus-fresh~


Carrot cake is a must-have in Spring!


You can do so much with
Meyer Lemon Simple Syrup:


A classic recipe with fresh flavor~
There's luscious lemon filling in this
Even when it's cold outside, you can grow something fresh!
Can't wait for the honey bees ♥
Easter will be here before you know it...
OK, this one isn't a recipe, but it made me think of 
warm weather and picnics.


Just think of when you can pick basil right out of your own garden! 
It won't be long.


I hope you enjoyed our brief journey into Spring. 
Here's hoping for the real thing soon!



 We go to these parties, including Susan's!

    JOY,

    It is so cold here in Arkansas. School is out again today because of freezing rain and ice. You probably already know, but I LOVE everything lemon. It truly reminds me of spring and new beginnings. I am going to have to make some of these lemon treats.
    Thanks for sharing.
    Blessings,
