This review is from: Lemon Magic: 200 Beauty and Household Uses for Lemons and Lemon Juice (Paperback)

This book lists fabulous ideas and how to fix some of life's everyday problems. From removing toilet bowl rings, to fixing facial blemishes, keeping pets off furniture, and even stopping hiccups! Listed in the back are great recipes that use lemons. This book is well organized & it even gives a brief "history" on the lemon. Highly recommended!
