The other day, my soon to be niece in law surprised me with 1 1/2 dozen eggs that she had just gathered from her very own chickens! How great is that? So, what to do with so many eggs? Why, how about some fresh lemon curd?! I love anything lemony, and this recipe from Martha Stewart is the best!
First off, Mise en place, which means "everything in it's place". In other words, before cooking or baking anything, be sure to get all of your ingredients and tools & utensils organized & ready!
I really love my micro planer! It makes zesting the lemons a breeze, so much better than box graters!
Lots of wisking. My mouth is really watering now!
I joked to hubby that I was going to be the next Julie of "Julie & Julia" fame! I can see it now: Coming soon to a theater near you: "Donna & Martha". tee hee! Have a great weekend, and be sure to let me know if you try the recipe!

It's funny, that is exactly the recipe someone gave me eons ago..and it is yummy good..actually, I liked the pulp in it, gave it some tang...but straining is a good idea if you don't like pulp..
Being old-fashioned, I used the hand-under-the-squeezing-hand as my seed catcher..
Wow, this is fantastic!!! What an amazing post! You are welcome to hook it up for the Creative Spirit challenge on Sunday--I'd love to have you!

Funny...I,Donna, made lemon curd tonight too! That's so funny...ESP maybe...but I put mine in a pecan, graham cracker crust and put whipped cream on the top...yum! Your picture of the bread looks delicious!! Many of Martha's recipes are in my save pile too!!!
This looks yummy. I will have to try it. I have never heard of lemon curd...so this is something totally new for me!

Hi Donna!
Now don't forget us when you become famous! I'll be watching for your new show, the Donna and Martha Show! LOL!
From the looks of that lemon curd you could be the next food star.
I had to come over and get caught up on your posts. I love the cabinet on the previous post with the toile fabric. Very pretty.

Martha rocks!! That recipe looks so yummy, and I can't believe no one wanted that cute little pot...oh well!
OH MY GOODNESS!!! "I am SO making this"... LOVE REAL lemon stuff NEVER the fake that tastes like someone dropped a lollipop in the mix... How long will this last in the fridge??? That is IF no one eats it up all at one sitting... Thank you SO much for the recipe, Donna
