Celery Cranberry Relish

it was difficult for me to rate this recipe. i haven't yet prepared it because, although the directions call for lemon juice, no lemon juice is listed among the ingredients (so i have no idea even roughly how much to use.) however. i really,really like the inspiration. could anyone tell me how much lemon juice to use? thanks a million, lovedog
