Welcome to the House of Lemons!
Lemons. Lemons. Lemons. Lemons make me happy. The sour taste and their fresh scent wakes me up every morning. The yellow colour brightens up my mood. I love how people go from an instant frown to a smile when they bite on a juicy slice. Did I mention they're yellow?
I hope this blog will inspire you to forget what's bothering you, grab a spatula and fry something delicious. I don't want you to follow my recipes, I want you to get inspired by them and choose the ingredients and methods that work for you, blend two recipes together, add a pinch of your own imagination, forget the measurements, trust your taste buds.
I grew up not being let inside the kitchen. Not because I was a clumsy kid, but because my dad had an affair going on with his kitchen and didn't want anyone to interfere. I always admired his passion for food, cooking, and experimenting. When I moved out, I was quite clueless how to cook a proper meal. However, there was no other way for me but to learn. And with the help of my fiancé I did learn. Now cooking and baking is this beautiful yellow lemony happy place where I forget my problems.
In April 2016, right after my birthday, I've decided that I've had enough and turned vegan. Well almost. I have to be fair, from time to time I still eat some fish and dairy. However, most of the recipes on the blog are going to be vegan.
I hope you will enjoy experiencing our lemony journey through life with stir fries, curries, bakes, colours and lemons together with us.
So go get some lemons, pile them up in a basket and put it on a table so your guests would see, because someone once told me that a basket of lemons on a table gives one some extra image points ;)
