Sorbet, sort of.

Today I put frozen Mango, Watermelon, and Strawberries in the blender. Then I realized I have no yogurt (a key ingredient in a great Sorbet), so I added some milk, sugar, vanilla, and a little fruit juice. As I was blending I had this conversation with Caleb:

Caleb: Mom, what are you making?
Me: Some Sorbet.
Caleb: Is that Smoothie or Ice Cream?
Me: Well, It's a smoothie that wants to be Ice Cream.
Caleb: Oh, can I have some?
So I put some in a cup for him.
Caleb: Mmmmmm! This is good, mom.

Now we have a container of Watermelon Mango Sorbet in the freezer. Yum!

1st Grade!

Joshua started First Grade today! He was so excited to get up and walk to school with his dad this morning. Travis is also starting first grade (that is, a First Grade Bilingual Teacher!) So, we're settled into our own place, and staring the Career we've been working on for the last seven years.
