Mr. Kim's brother visited from Arizona and brought us, Mr. Kim's mom, and their sister lemons from his tree.  This is my share (18 lemons):

I'm making a couple of batches of @Tropicalsenior's microwave lemon curd and freezing the rest of the zest and juice.  I still have a bag of a few zested ones in the freezer from his Christmas visit!  

 

Strangely enough, 2021 wasn't a banner citrus year for AZ.  We had no winter rains 2020-2021 and then in July the heavens opened and Monsooned like crazy into Sept.   The trees were set with not great fruit at that time and the a lot of scarring happened and the sizes are smaller.   The grapefruit are tiny and the a larger percentage than normal of my lemons on the tree are dry pulped.
