When Lloyd and I were grocery shopping after he had services at the nursing home*, I was very thirsty. I grabbed some lemons with the thought to make homemade lemonade.
Once home, I made some sugar syrup by putting some water and sugar in a pyrex thing, then nuking it until it boiled. I had no idea if that was the right ratio of sugar to water, so I just kept pouring sugar in and stirring, watching it dissolve. I should have videoed that – that was the interesting part. Anyway, at this point I thought I should take pictures so I’d have something to post, and that’s when I noticed how filthy the countertop was. All kinds of dried coffee and tomato-based-sauce spots. Bleh.
I cleaned it.
Here is the ‘making of’ photo.
And that’s that. It was lemony and refreshing and just what I wanted. It was also a lot of work scrubbing that stupid counter.
* That’s a story for another day.
