Push down on the lid, it should be down or go "Pop" and that means it's sealed correctly. Then keep in the cabinet after labeling. The internet sites says it will keep a year...if you can keep hungry people from finding it.
That's so cool and it sounds like the pies I make in jars and keep frozen :) Yum! Thanks!

This sounds heavenly, I need to try it. I LOVE the lemon pound cake you get from Starbucks and it might be a good substitute.

Thank you, thank you all!! This is a marvelous addition to my recipe box. I'll make several of these and eat them in rotation.

And for something special, I think that I'll make every one of these over time and either can them or freeze them, then when I"m hostess for my woman's club, I'll have them on a dessert table, each with 11 copies of the recipe (there are 12 of us in this chapter of BSP). I always try to have something different...

As for the lemon tree, I live in the hot, desert like central valley of California. Lemons are a tropical plant and love the heat.

Thanks again to all of you who have helped me with my lemon fetish!!! I'm drooling as I read over these lovely recipes.

Hi Ramona,
I was born in Merced and raised in Chowchilla just down the road from you. This isn't a "cake" recipe but rather muffins and is the best with or without the blueberries. If you want it a little more cake like I would suggest adding a lemon glaze on top. We love these and hope you will too. Ann in TN
