Ever since my very first pregnancy, I love all things lemon.
I'm about to tell you something...don't hate me.
Oreos are ok. I'm not a huge chocolate person...on the rare occasion we have some in the house, I don't eat many.
A few weeks ago I saw "lemon crème" oreos. Knowing that I'm not a huge oreo fan, and even all of their special flavors have never appealed to me in a big way.
These lemon crème oreos...are the bomb.
If you too are a lover of all things lemon, look for these on your next trip to the store.

Oh, you are evil. To indicate how much I was NOT holding my breath, when I first saw them, I only picked up one package.
I've been back to the store...several times.

Are they better than the imported ginger lemon sandwich cookies? Ginger cookies with lemon filling. Name escapes me at the moment, but they're from somewhere in Europe. To.Die.For.

I agree. I thought they were really tasty!
I'm a big Oreo fan in general, though, and am now in love with the new Oreo Thins.

These are better than the hideous lemon things the Girl Scouts came out with a few years ago. That "bag" of cookies was thrown away...and for me to throw away anything lemon related is a BIG DEAL.

I love all things lemon too, so these do indeed sound like "the bomb"!! I doubt I'd be able to get them over here yet though. Unless the "USA Foods" store has them.

Here's a picture, just because I can. Not meaning to sidetrack Jenny's anti-ginger lemon cookie thread or anything.

I just hope they sell well and are not discontinued and clearanced out, never to be seen on the shelf again.

The lemon Oreos have been around for a while now, so I'm hoping they are a regular part of their product line.
I do like the new Oreo Thins though. I've always liked the chocolate part of the cookie best, not the cream filling.

They weren't inside my head (at this particular moment, anyway) until you put them there. hmmph When I get to the store, I'll look for the lemon Oreos, too. OMG, I love lemon and I love ginger, these sound simply divine. It is a fantastic combination, and I'm sure you can get them there.

They have been around for over a year now - they are awesome, I do agree! They at the golden Oreo cookies stuffed with lemon creme. I do love them!

Seeing that we're discussing all things lemon, I thought I'd share what I am eating right at this minute. It is the birthday of one of the girls at work, so another girl made her Donna Hay's Lemon and Yoghurt Cake. This particular cake is a favorite of all of us at work, and one of us usually makes it once a month or so. In fact one of the other girls made it into cupcakes last week as well. Normally we would put lemon thyme or lemon zest on top, but this time she put candied lemons on top. Oh wow, they are good!! And here it is, the proof is in the..... er.... cake!

That's the only reason I don't have any here right now. I guess I'm going to have to pay full price.

Love lemon Oreos. FYI Target has all Oreo products 40% off if you use their cartwheel app thing. Through Aug 1st I think.
Have you tried the new thin ones? Very good. Crisp and the whole cookie is about the thickness of one wafer side of regular. If you like double stuff (too much for me) you probably won't like these. If you'd like crisp thin outer with thin layer of creme, these are for you.
Now I want lemon ones again....

Oh no! I put them on my Costco list. I'll check next week to see if we have them. I love them, and like how it's only about 20 cookies in a box. With teens in the house, they don't last long, but I know I still have more boxes.

I think that the lemon Oreo's are a regular part of their product line now. I remember seeing them last year and buying a it for a few months. Then it went away. I asked on FB and they said that they tested a few flavors in different parts of the country and to look for the best to come back out. A few months ago I started seeing them on the shelf along with birthday cake Oreo's.

It sounds good. I hope they are as good as the lemon flavored peeps that I tried this past Easter.

Aussie Meg's cake sure looked good...but now I present...our local doughnut shop and their Lemon Meringue DOUGHNUT. I tried to explain it to my mom...and why it was special enough to pay like $3 per doughnut. I had to tell her it was no ordinary doughnut...and not even anything I'd consider a breakfast doughnut. It's more like dessert.

Lemon Cheesecake Mousse
Super, duper simple to make. I used Cool Whip instead of the whipping cream because I was in a hurry. This is my new favorite dessert. Make it. Today. You'll thank me.
