MEYER LEMONS



Yesterday we were walking back from running errands and passed by Natura, an organic market.  We stopped in to see what they had available.  Sam spotted a basket with two lemons in it.  She asked the owner about the lemons and he said they were "Meyer Lemons".  Lemons are very hard to come by in San Miguel.  That is, the lemons we are used to.   Here they are called "Limon".  Limes are called "Limas".  However, sometimes we see limons but they are green and sweet, somewhat like an orange.  The owner also talked about other lemons as well.  We were confused by the time we left.  We just purchased one Meyer Lemon to try.

Last night we fixed ourselves a nice refreshing Kir with fresh lemon.  It was tasty.  We only used half of the lemon so tonight we will enjoy another half with another Kir.

It will certainly "Kir" what "ales" us!!
