The weather here in Portland has been HOT for several days. (we are used to 60 degrees and rain, this 90 degree weather knocks the wind out of my sail!)

Your Lime Squares are perfect for a refreshing snack. I'll be making them as soon as I get home.

Thank you sooooooooo much for the recipe!

Another 5! Love these!


Yummy, sounds heavenly!


The lime squares are fabulous! Although squeezing the juice out of a dozen quarter sized limes took forever!

I couldn't figure out how to cut the squares evenly with a knife so I used the pizza cutter. Wow, it worked like a charm. Who knew?

Thanx for the recipe!
