In November last year we kicked off the very first Sweet Adventures Blog Hop, with the theme being Pavlova. I hosted this first event, and honestly I wasn’t sure how many Sweet Adventures we would have, but I’m happy to say that 5 months down the track we’re still going and growing. Now that each Sweet Adventures hostess has had a turn at hosting it’s my turn again and I am excited to announce this months theme is Lemon!
I love, no adore, lemons. Their beautiful tart tanginess always freshens things up and immediately makes me think of long summer days. We always have them on hand in the Delicieux house. They are wonderfully versatile, and their range can extend from being used in drinks, savoury and sweet dishes, and of course this being a Sweet Adventures Blog Hop, we want you to get your thinking cap on and give us your best lemon dish. Do you have a favourite lemon dish? Show us! Do you have a lemon recipe you’ve just been looking for an excuse to try? Show us! Do you have a wonderful story to share about your love of lemons? Tell us!
So why not join us in the fun Lemon themed event! The blog hop will open for link-up 9am Monday 16 April 2012 – Australian Eastern Standard Time [AEST: Sydney] and will remain open for a week and a day until 11:59pm Monday 23 April 2012 AEST.
Regardless of whether you are a new or experienced food blogger join in the fun and make some passionate food friends along the way. Share your best, favourite or most interesting lemon dish with us.
- SABH is a monthly dessert link-up. Each month there is a new theme. This months theme is, you guessed it, Lemon!

I'd be absolutely honoured if you could join us Rosa. I always love your delicious creations and your stunning photos. :D
Oops, I picked the weekend before that (14th) to host my one-off-event Soup-off Blog Hop :) Looks like I will be doing a lot of cooking and blogging that weekend!! I love lemons, thought, so I wouldn't want to pass it up!
Yum! I love lemons, for once it will be tricky to decide what to make :)
This makes me really hungry and I want to make sure that I can try this on my own...I have to learn baking and cooking first...
Ohhh lemons great ingredient :) Love all lemon desserts ~ Hope to enter if I have the time this month ~
I hope you have time to join us Daisy. :D
Great idea, Jennifer. I love lemons too, so look forward to seeing all the posts.
Great blog hop theme!! I love lemon. I'll be traveling between now and then but we'll see if I can whip something up :-)
I hope you can make it Katherine, we'd love you to join in on the fun :D
I can't wait. I have the perfect recipe in mind that my mum gave me at my bridal shower. She first made it when she was at school.
Aww that's so sweet. I can't wait to see it. :D
Lemon is a great pick Jen! The candied lemon cake sounds to die for. I surely try and link up a lemon recipe. :)
Yummy bloghop -- off to brainstorm ;)
Oops I have scheduled my one-off Soup-Off Blog Hop for the weekend before that (the 14th) :) So I'll be very busy cooking and blogging that weekend! I don't want to pass up the lemon theme though - so I'll just have to do both! xx
I adore lemon in sweet and savoury dishes and would love to get involved in this blog hop...will get my thinking cap on now!
I look forward to this one! Very busy, but I'm hoping to find some participating time:)
I hope you can join us Denise :D

I just posted a meyer lemon bars. Wish I had posted it today ,so that I could send it to this event :) now let me try to make something with lemons before this event is over :)
How fun...lemons are great for just about anything! Will try to come up with a sweet :)
Both those cakes and that tart look incredible! I have such a sweet - err tart - tooth for lemons. I love all things lemon. Yum!
Thanks Russell. I do hope you can join in our Blog Hop event celebrating Lemons :D
Can't wait to see the results!
I'm not a food blogger (yet) but will be looking at the ideas with interest.
Our Greek neighbours have the most prolific tree in their front yard and flood us with lemons at this time of year, will be great to have some fresh inspiration!
Hi Maree,
We'd love for you to join us. Maybe you can make this your first post :D

This sounds too exciting! Would love to participate.
Ha I have a penchant for anything citrusy, lemon/lime being my fav. I hope to participate, if I manage to whip up something on time :) And oh I love that first pic of yours, feel like cutting into a slice-YUM!
Thanks Nash :D I'd love for your to join us!
Haha whoops! Sorry for the double comment! I must have forgotten that I had already commented :)
Looking forward to testing out my recipes for this one and the lemons on my tree are just ripening so with any luck I will have delicious home grown ones to use :)
How lucky to have a lemon tree. It's my dream to own a lemon tree one day. :D Thank you for joining us and I can't wait to see what you come up with.
Yay for lemons! Excited for this month... now what to do...
I love lemons! Great theme :)
Mmm.... those lemon cakes you have there look lovely. I'll have to have a good think about what to cook with the lemons from our tree. It's the first time I'll be cooking with them so I'm a little excited!
Hmm, might have to get myself a little more organised and try this one out - I've got a ton of lemons on the tree!
I'd love for you to join us Amanda :D I am sure you will whip up something amazing with your lemons!
My blog recently got an overhaul so all is deleted and somewhat starting fresh. Can I still partake, even though my blog is not really established anymore.
I was planning on buying a whole bunch of lemons to do some baking with so this is perfect timing.
Hi Stacey,
Unfortunately you do need a blog to partake in the blog hop. Are you able to get it up and running in time for the blog hop on Monday?
Jennifer, Sweet lemonlishous! Lemons have got to be one of my favorite ingredients too.
All your your creations looks delish!
-E
I don't bake a lot or make sweet treat more that often but I would still love to participate in the event :)
I'd love for you to join us Kankana :D
I will be in on this one! I have the perfect thing in mind!
Great Anna :D So glad you will be joining us! :)
