When life gives me lemons, I pick them up and sell them to fund my impulsive shopping habit. So life, gimme more lemons please. Preferably the yellow ones.
As I googled for a cute picture of lemons to suit this little quote of mine, I came across this ten interesting facts about lemons as can be read here. Seeing that I desperately want to become an informative blogger (aite, you are allowed to puke now), I have decided to share the facts with my readers (as if I have any. *sighs*) Nonetheless, here are the fun facts.
- Lemons are high in vitamin C, anti-bacterial, antioxidant and believed to be anti-carcinogenic
- Mix equaly with water, put in spray bottle and you have an effective bathroom and kitchen cleaner.
