COSTCO: Lemon Tree Very Pretty

pc: the tree center.com

The dwarf Meyer lemon tree was shipped from the nursery in Hickman, California on Tuesday @ 6:20 pm.  Made its cross-country trek to my state and arrived Friday night. Loaded for delivery, but endured a warm weekend as it was not actually delivered till Monday.  I could have blasted UPS for not  having delivery service in my neighborhood on Saturdays! 

Oh, my poor little plant -- will it survive the long, hot trek and the waiting while stuck in a cardboard box?  Then I thought of God's capabilities and prayed ...

And Asa cried unto the Lord his God, and said, Lord, it is nothing with thee to help, whether with many, or with them that have no power: help us, O Lord our God; for we rest on thee, and in thy name we go against this multitude. O Lord, thou art our God; let no man prevail against thee.

Finally! Here it is -- all 2 feet of it --  already bearing fruit (tho' it did lose a couple while in transit) :

Healthy Green Drink for Warm Summer Days

Got the idea for this delicious, cold, healthy drink via our breakfast/brunch  at the Westin Hotel.  Ingredients: Cucumber, Lemon, Celery, and Apple.  Maybe it is not as simple as blending the 4 ingredients. Any decent buffet place needs a few "secrets" up its sleeves to have people want to come back.

We didn't overthink it, and went the easy route: Chopped ingredients. Mixed & combined according to our preferred taste. Added plenty of ice and a little Squirt Soda. Blended on high.

Tada ... maybe not as nice-looking, but not bad-tasting at all. Good to the last drop on a muggy Summer day.
