Give me Lemons

Give me Lemons...

I give you Lemon cupcakes
with Lemon frosting on top ;)

The story behind these lemons, if you're interested.
I teach a student from Bangladesh. Her mom loves gardening and she loves cactus. The entrance to her house is full of so many kinds of cactus.
One day, last week, I noticed some yellow fruits among the cactus. They looked small, round and smooth. I asked her: what is that fruit?
She said: Lemons! Chinese Lemons. I will fill a bag for you!
- I'm craving lemons these days, I've been looking for lemon cupcakes everywhere, but couldn't find any!
That day, I made my first cupcakes, and they were sour :)
*If you are wondering, yes, it's my bump showing in the 1st picture...I didn't crop it, because it's a part of me :)
* Jeeej topped my cupcake with frosting in the second picture! This is how much he loves me :)
* I gained a LOT of weight last month...so...
Never mind.
