Backyard Lemon Bars

I was out in the yard the other day innocently racking leaves when suddenly I felt a sharp pain on the top of my head.



THUD! I heard.

Looking down at my feet I saw the object of my torment.

A lemon.

Yep, we have a lemon tree growing in our backyard and it's time to pick some fruit.  Only one dilemma.

What do I do with all these lemons?

Make treats...that's what!
