I've recently started writing an Ebook about the history of citrus fruits.

It's nowhere near finished, but the first chapter's on lime.

A very young lemon strolled into an underground metro station, buying and enjoying a coffee, chatting with other fruits and eventually riding on a nice, modern train.

One could say it was a sub-lime experience.

I’m obsessed with sketching pictures of fruit, and I really think I should stop.

I have to draw the lime somewhere.

I always like bragging about the very small hatchet I own.....

.....I've done some research on it and as it turns out, it's from the 1850's and was used in some rich guys home to chop up citrus fruits for desserts and cakes etc.
My wife thinks it's boring, she says "it's just an antique lime axe".

It's a Lemon

I barback for a friend on Sunday mornings. Part of that job includes cutting my own lemons and limes for brunch service. Because we only order organic produce, it's fairly common to get nasty looking fruit.

I'd been mulling over this thought for weeks, waiting for the perfect moment to capitalize on the growing, searing flame inside of me when finally, after much preparation, I found one. A lemon that looked fine on the outside and was nasty on the inside. I turned to the bartender and simply said, "I think I found a Lemon."

He groaned. And walked away. But the dad's at the bar chuckled a little.
