    The Home-Grown California Lemon, Limited Edition Fig Bars

    Special surprise alert!

    The batch of Fig Bars shipping this week feature a totally revamped, super-delicious, all-new dough. Recipients can expect the addition of:

    *hand-scraped, whole vanilla beans
    *fresh orange zest

    annnd... this is the best one ...
    
    *lemon zest and juice from lemons grown on my friend Pavla's family farm in California --- ( say whhatttt? yeah... she's the best.)
    
    I'm learning a lot as I go here. Thankfully, each valuable lesson translates into a (hopefully) more delicious fig bar for you to enjoy. (That's right, I'm FIGuring it out...waka waka waka.)
