Please? Work? I'd Like Some...
Still peddling my resumes to anyone who has a job even remotely related to what I can do. Signed on with a temp agency. Still need a real job. Anyone? Bueller?
In gooder news, tomorrow we are venturing up to ME to see Big Brother and associated peoples for the Summer solstice Shindig. I made some REALLY kick-ass lemon squares, recipe below.
There is Bacardi in the house. I will be enjoying some of it shortly.
And my show for tonight was cancelled. *sigh*
RECIPE FOR SUPER-LEMONY LEMON BARS
CRUST:
1 1/2 C. AP flour
2/3 C. confectioner's sugar
3/4 C. unsalted butter (room temp)
1/4 tsp. salt [if using salted butter, omit salt]
Preheat oven to 350F. Combine sugar, flour, and salt in mixing bowl. Cut in butter w/pastry cutter until dough is evenly crumbed. Pat into well greased 9x13x2 pan to cover bottom. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, make the FILLING:
6 whole eggs
6 Tbls AP flour
1 C FRESH lemon juice
1 3/4 C. sugar
1 Tble lemon zest (optional)
Mix all filling ingredients in large bowl, using wire whisk, until frothy. Pour over hot crust, and bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes, until filling is set. Cool in pan on wire rack for 20 minutes, then cut into squares (I cut 6x4 for a total of 24 bars). Remove from pan with spatula and set squares on wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar once cooled.
This is a VERY tangy bar.
