A Lemon


I was hoping to come up with some grand motive for beginning our blog with a lemon.  The truth is, the blog decor made me think....lemon!  And there you have it.  Perhaps subconsciously I thought we could all use a little citrus sunshine to get us through the winter.  In any case, I was looking through a poetry book the other night and I came across a Pablo Neruda poem called A Lemon.  The very last line of the poem reads "the diminutive fire of a planet."  I just had lemon curd tonight and I think he may be right.
