Winter Blues?

I've got the cure.

Grab some lemons and make some citrus sugar! It's crazy easy and if it doesn't help I'm not sure how to help. I've never had a problem that food couldn't somehow fix.
Grate the skin of 2-3 lemons (wash them first please!) Try to avoid going too deep and hitting the pith. It's not that yummy.
Dump it in 4-5 Tablespoons of sugar and rub it together until the sugar starts to take on a pale yellow hue and the heavenly sent of lemons fills the air. 
Ta DA! Now store it in a cute jar and use it for whatever your little heart desires.

You can sprinkle it over fresh fruit.

Or just replace regular sugar in a recipe with it - like blueberry muffins.

Have a good lemon-y weekend!
