Sammijo, how I envy you for those Meyer lemons! I am positively obsessed with Meyer lemons. If you are looking for something a little more savory, you can try a recipe I got from Vegetarian Times. Cook a pound of spaghetti. Make a sauce with half a cup of Parm cheese, a quarter cup of olive oil, a quarter cup of Meyer lemon juice, the zest of a Meyer lemon (oh, that zest is so fragrant!), and a clove of garlic, minced. Add some black pepper. When you drain the pasta, save a little of the water to thicken the sauce if you need to. Then toss the spaghetti with the sauce. Mix in some toasted walnuts and garnish with chopped parsley. I just ate the leftovers from this recipe for today's lunch. It is light and wonderful.

Now that sounds divine!

You can freeze lemons...not just the juice. I looked this article up recently when a neighbor gave me lots of meyer lemons. She bought a tree from QVC and it does very well.

I would be more apt to use a recipe that calls for Meyer lemons as they definitely have a different flavor. I do not think they are as tart.
