Pinterest Inspiration: Citrus

Ashley's Pinterest post inspired me to write about something that I've currently been trending with on Pinterest lately: citrus. Since Christmas, we've come to find out that my lactose intolerance has ramped it up a few notches, so the past few weeks I've found myself looking for every alternative to dairy.

When it comes to sweet things with dairy - ice cream, etc., luckily more citrus and fruit flavored things are dairy-free. It's also the time of year that blood oranges, one of my favorite fruits, pop up.

Here's a few citrus recipes I can't wait to try:

Blood Orange Loaf Cake 

Lemon Rosemary Cake

We've also had a few mild days recently and I can't help but think of spring days outside drinking this:
Frozen Coconut Limeade

I'm already dreaming about spring, gardening, and time outside. What about you?

  2. Don't think I'm quite ready to unveil the flesh. I tried on my new red flats and my legs and ankles looked ghostly.

  3. I LOVE blood oranges. This time of year makes me so happy for oranges and grapefruits... I just got a lemon olive oil as an add-on to a purchase of balsamic vinegar and can't wait to try it. I was thinking pound cake of some kind but maybe one of these loaf cakes would be the right place to try it!
