Remember that dessert your grandma used to make? It had a shortbread crust and 3 layers of lemony goodness. I don't even necessarily like lemon, but I still remember my grandma making lemon lush.

If I was smart, I would have had this post ready for it, but since I'm new at this, I made my celebratory dessert that night. I've already learned from this so I can properly celebrate National Coffee Day and World Nutella Day the right way with a post before the actual day hits us!
