I have a few links for you! Mostly because I spend my time drooling over the recipes in these websites and have yet to get off my arse and make them myself. So without further ado.

Lemon Bars at Smitten Kitchen: http://smittenkitchen.com/2008/01/lemon-bars/

Or a Shaker Lemon Pie at SK (featuring links to more of her lemon recipe goodies):

Well… you’re gonna have to keep them longer than a couple of hours (it’s actually gonna take about 2 weeks but it should be worth it)

Make limoncello! My aunt and uncle in California have a lemon tree in their backyard that yields a ridiculous amount of lemons every summer and my aunt’s coworker offered to make her limoncello one time and now, instead of dreading the summer and having to figure out what to do with her lemons, she gives them away by the bucket with a recipe of limoncello.

you can preserved them…I dunno what you would call it. My family takes whole lemons, salt them and put them in a jar with water. Then we let them sit for years….I mean YEARS. We have a jar that is like 10 yrs old. If you do it properly, they won’t rot, but they turn brown. When you have a sore throat you can take one out and suck on it…very salty and sour! But you can also take one, add hot water and sugar and break the lemon apart (its skin will be really soft) – makes a very good drink and you can eat the lemon whole. You can make jars of these at a time and you can let them sit for..who knows how long. My house has a lemon tree too =) we also give them away to my grandparents and aunts.

Umm… I’ve read that fresh lemon juice is good for facial blemishes and just your skin in general. It doesn’t use much, but it’s something.

You can sell them to your neighbors, A man who had a mango tree in my old neighborhood used to sell mangoes to the whole neighborhood. its was awesome and he sold quiet a bit.

Oh, I forgot lemon bars and lemon chicken. You can also scrub lemons on your elbows, knees, etc. to make it whiter. :P
