Hello SF family! I am hip deep in end of semester projects, including a group project which is most aggravating lol

So, just for fun today:

Are you a lemon or a lime?

 

[Angie]

I would like to be a lime, because... tequila!

 

[Gonz]

I’m a grapefruit; I’m terrible and no one likes me.

But Gonz, I love grapefruit.

PS I like you a lot!

Hi Angie and SF friends. Angie, good luck with all your school projects you got this.

I'm a lime, lol. Because, I lived in Key West Florida for 5 years where my son was born at Babies by the sea. Also, our babysitter used to hop the fence and steal, urmm, borrow limes from the neighbors yard.

Here's a key lime pie for us to share.

My mom loves grapefruit! But then, she's also kinda allergic to it...

I'm a lemon! I put it in my tea, and pretty much in all my dishes. Also love painting them!
I'd sometimes use lime for cocktails or Mexican food, but they are so difficult to squeeze unless extra-fresh...

I don't dislike grapefruit nor you.

We are all cheering you on @Angie. Doing group projects at uni was by far my least favourite talsk. I'm sorry you're having perhaps similar issues. This too shall pass. lol.

Thank you as always for the great Cafe topic @Angie and for the tag @MisterBGone

i like both, however limes have a better.... tartness??? or flavor to me. i preferer limes in my water, and tea and most recipes... especially with coconut! However lemons do have a place in both the culinary and scent world. i do Love Meyer Lemons. Maybe its the Italian (Sicilian) in me... so i am partial to them. However, i just do feel they are the best of the lemons out there (that i have tried). And i prefer to use those over other typical lemons for pretty much anything i need lemons for. Limes are still top for me though.

omg I want need a piece of that pie @Lane.

 

[Livelife]

Both. But I use lemons more. Nothing beats lime in guacamole 🥑
Now I have to make a key lime pie, what a perfect Thanksgiving time dessert…Thanks Lane☺️

Now I want lemon bars.

 

[SillyOldBear]

I'd have to say neither. I am more of a chocolate cake and pizza gal.

 

[cymbele]

I used to like the lime in Coke cola. Now I do lime in water instead of lemon and it's unusual enough that when i order water with lime I usually get the yellow fruit (lemon).

 

[KM76710]

Can I be a dingleberry instead? People at times call me that.

Lemon is my serious answer. Not only for lemonade but I am always making up pitchers of water which is the main thing I drink. Add a dash of lemon concentrate for a bit of flavoring.

One of my very favorites🍋
