Magazine of Northwest Arkansas
Welcome To BostonandOzarks.com
BostonandOzarks.com is an online publication devoted to home and living in Northwest Arkansas. My name is James Kevin Connell and I am a transplant to Northwest Arkansas from Dallas, Texas. I am Publisher and Editor-in-Chief at BostonandOzarks.com. After seventeen years here, it is surely now my home. If you love every minute here as much as I do, I think you will enjoy what we bring you here in BostonandOzarks.com.
From things for the home and home design, to recipes, outdoor living and lawn & garden, to the arts and local events, we try to give you a comprehensive look at the possibilities for those of us that call Northwest Arkansas home.
We hope you enjoy it.

BY the way, these treatments work for limes, too. It looks like the Moroccans get top billing for preserving lemons, but the Indians and even the British and early Americans used this method, too. Hank gives recipes for them: Russian Pickled Lemons, Moroccan or American Preserved Lemons and the Indian Method. See the article HERE.
