seasonal goodness

farmer's markets, with all of their ripe summer fruits and vegetables, are beyond inspiring and DELICIOUS this time of the year.  today did not let me down.  i picked up some amazing organic peaches, apricots and strawberries.  there's something to be said for eating seasonal and local.

with the heat also upon us, i wanted to make something cool and easy.  strawberry sorbet it was!

Organic Strawberry Honey Sorbet

2 pints ripe, organic strawberries

1 organic meyer lemon

1/2 c. honey

2 T. vodka

-cut green stems off of all strawberries and add to blender with lemon and vodka

-blend until strawberries are completely pureed

-add honey and blend for another 30 seconds

-pour mixture into an ice cream maker and follow manufacture's instructions

(i love my cuisinart ice cream maker not only for it's affordability but it's ease in use and cleanup)

*makes about 4 cups sorbet*

i can't blog!!!

maybe it's the summer, maybe i've lost my mojo, but i've been busy with life and not very motivated to write lately.  so here's some photos i've snapped along the way during my absence
