Lemons are not just for lemonade (although fresh lemonade is so good, isn't it?) They can be used in lots of creative ways around the house and also for beauty and health reasons.
Cleaning and disinfecting with lemons is a cinch because of the acid in it. You can even use it on cuts, wounds and cold sores.
I've put together a list of 25 creative ways to use this versatile fruit on my blog.

When life gives you lemons, do more than just make lemonade!
Coarse Kosher salt and half a lemon does a great job of cleaning up tarnished copper.
Got lime scale on your taps and faucet? The lemon juice in half a lemon will take care of it quickly!
If you have a recipe that calls for only half a lemon, don't throw the rest away. Put it in an open dish in the fridge to absorb odors. See all my other tricks for using lemons on my blog.
