I too inherited a lemon tree when I moved in to my new house and I'm loving it... here's my lemon syrup cake recipe that I have made nearly every week since moving in. Can't wait to try the lemon meringue pie. Sounds yum! And the cheesecake reminds me of the one my grandma used to make... will have to dig out the recipe.
