   Hope everyone is having a great Saturday so far.  I just finished posting a new podcast.

   Farewell to Buck Massey and Bob Hattoy

   a couple of farewells, some politics and some good music.

     Hi rf! We’re enjoying a break from winter with temps in the 50 – 60 range the last few days. I have a suggestion for the Edwards campaign if you have any influence with them – they might consider changing the Indiana for Edwards logo to “Hoosiers for Edwards 08”. I’m not sure anyone up here would know what an “Indianian” is;-)

       LOL  I don’t have connections with the campaign but I can do a new design.

           a time, I was one of the multitude of people who felt that CountryTime was the golden standard of limonada.  Until I made some from scratch.  I hope you’ll walk down the path of Enlightenment as soon as possible.

           Grandma’s Real Old-Fashioned Natural Lemonade
           Makes about 8 cups

           A Old-Fashioned Summer time treat …!
           Great pick-me-up, thirst-quenching, and not too sweet.

           Lemon Juice, freshly squeezed from 8 large lemons (1-1/2 cups)
           1/2  cup of sugar, granulated – more or less to taste
           5  cups cold well water
           1  large lemon, cut into small wedges or thin cartwheel slices

           Freshly made Ice cubes. Make fresh ice cubes, as they may pick up freezer odors over a period of time, if not used regularly.

           In a large pitcher, combine the freshly squeezed lemon juice, granulated sugar and 2 cups of cold water; stir briskly to dissolve the sugar. Add the remaining ingredients and stir briskly again.

           To make a Honey Flavored Lemonade:
           Substitute your favorite “honey” for the granulated sugar. Adjust more or less to taste.

           To make a Pink Lemonade:
           Add a few drops of grenadine syrup or Grandma’s red frosting food coloring.

           It’s a hot summer day, breezes just barly moving, and your sitting in a rocking swing, on the cool shaded front porch. You are sipping a ice cold glass of lemonade, with some leftover birthday cake, from the day before. It can’t get any better than that. Not a care in the world. Enjoy the lazy day…!

           You can also add sugar to water and heat in a sauce pan first to melt sugar completely.

           Since my kids were little we’ve been making “lemon shake-ups” instead of buying lemonade.  Waaaay better, very much like your recipe but more fun. 🙂

           Yeah but I usually make it for parties or fund raisers so make quite a larger amount and use the juicer to juice fresh fruit for it and do a mix of lime and lemon.

           well, I thought it tasted like sugar sweetened toilet water until I stopped drinking it.

           Man Eegee on March 10, 2007 at 7:09 pm

           question has to be asked:  how do you know what toilet water tastes like?  😉

           I’m off to galavant, see y’all later.
