NOT REALLY A RECIPE BUT MORE OF A HOW TO... When I go to the farmers market, or fruit stands I always buy bags of lemons and limes. Living in southern Louisiana it gets very hot, and no matter how hard I tried some of them ended up spoiling " even in the refrigerator. " These can be use any way you like, and the frozen wedges of lemons and limes can be used as ice cubes. This is a wee bit messy, but once your done....you'll have all the lemons and limes at your finger tips, that you'll need. You can also do the same thing with oranges and grapefruits.
