when life gives you lemons, just make lemonade




today I am taking a step back and reevaluating things.  you know the saying, "when life gives you lemons, just make lemonade"? Well, I just made me a pitcher.

For all you lemonade lovers, here's a great recipe for you to enjoy.

Old Fashioned Lemonade
6 lemons
1 cup white sugar
6 cups cold water

DIRECTIONS
Juice the lemons to make 1 cup of juice. To make your labor easier, FIRMLY roll the lemons between your hand and counter top before cutting in half and juicing. In a gallon pitcher combine 1 cup lemon juice, 1 cup sugar, and 6 cups cold water. Stir. Adjust water to taste. Chill and serve over ice.
