When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!
You cant make lemonade with just lemons, which has always bothered me about the saying
You need sugar and water, which i suppose could be metaphorically compared to love and self care respectively, but the metaphor never touches on that. Just more pick yourself up by the bootstraps nonsense.
Lemons contain water. I'd assume, being fruit, they probably contain at least some sugar? Thus, if you were willing to tolerate a lot of waste and the effort of extracting those ingredients, and had enough spare lemons, maybe you could make lemonade out of just lemons?
I was thinking the same thing. Distillation is easy enough, extracting the sugar would be trickier but I'm sure it's doable even if you have to cook it down to a glaze and carmelize it. It would be a fun little project.

I just played Portal 2 for the first time ever this week. I got through it in a few days. It was fantastic.

When life goes you lemons you realize lemons are man made and life didn’t give you anything
