put some curd on it

If you’re anything like us, you spend a good deal of time walking around the streets near your home, coveting thine neighbours’ lemon trees. So yellow, so zingy, so enticingly THERE. But whether you choose to guiltily pinch the occasional citrus temptation of your own, or you’re more of a stuff-’em-in-a-bag-at-the-shops type of person, there’s one thing we can probably all agree on: few things are better to do with a whole bag of lemons than to make a big batch of lemon curd.

Slather it on toast and pancakes and scones. Pipe it into biscuits and tarts and cakes. Basically bathe in it. This recipe from The Polka Dotter makes the whole thing look pretty simple to DIY, and maybe gift to friends in a nice jar if you’re feeling particularly generous.
