sorbet

i attempted, for the first time ever, to make sorbet!!!

i tore the recipe out of a magazine at the ent's office ;) sheepish grin.

i had no raspberries or limes but i really wanted to try it tonight so............ i used frozen blueberries i had on hand (fresh michigan) that also had a few random frozen strawberries and necterine thrown in (berries/fruit i had cleaned and cut for smoothies)
so i followed the directions. i combined 1 cup sugar with 1 cup water, brought to simmer, and "melted" the sugar in. i then added the frozen blueberries, and stirred. i then pureed it in the food processor (two batches....big mess) and did NOT STRAIN IT. i am not afraid of a little chunk here or there and want to live on the wild side. :) i followed the directions from there by freezing until solid, then whipping in chilled bowl, then freezing again. 

i am going to try with raspberries :) and lime. 

the recipe also suggested:  1 cup frozen raspberries/2 cups frozen pineapple chunks or  2 cups frozen cubed mango with the raspberries.
