These lemon squares are not just good for Passover, they are actually DELICIOUS lemon squares! Lemon squares are a sweet and tart treat any time of the year, but these ones are suited perfectly for Passover. And bonus: they're easy to make with just a few ingredients.
It all started with a simple little request from my son to have Clone trooper and Stormtrooper cupcakes at his birthday party. Honestly, I didn’t even know there was a difference between Storm and Clone troopers, and pretty much assumed all the white-uniformed-robot-looking-guys were the “bad guys,” but boy was I wrong and my almost 6-year old was more than happy to give me a Star Wars 101.
If your kids are like mine, their favourite cooking endeavours probably involve sweet stuff. At our house, cookies came before casseroles, cakes before cauliflower. As they got older, they became quite intrigued with aspects of food science, especially the chemical reactions involved in baking. This tasty experiment requires just a little prep time followed by a lot of patience but kids will have a great time watching the crystals grow and, of course, sampling the finished product. It would be a great project for a school break or for homeschoolers.
I think my children are in what we call a "growth phase," although I have a sinking feeling that this is less of a "phase" and more of a "way of life for the next eight or nine years." We haven't even entered the teen years and my boys are already eating me out of house and home.
