I made this lemonade in the summer when it was so hot you didn't want to be outside. We never had enough to serve with a meal because Seth, Whitney, Mollee and I would stand in the kitchen and drink it all at once.

I still remember squeezing all of the lemons. My Daddy always said he was the "Little Red Hen" because he was the only one who worked in the garden but everyone in the family loved to eat the vegetables he grew. I gave him a glass of this lemonade once when he was working in the garden and I stood there and said, "Who's the little red hen now, Daddy? Who's the little red hen?"
