Homemade Sherbet
July 24, 2007 by KellyH.
I can’t remember if I ever tried this with my kids, but I think I’m going to.
Orange Sherbet
3 cups milk
1 cup sugar
1 package unsweetened, powdered, orange-flavored drink mix
Mix all ingredients until dissolved and well mixed. Pour into a shallow pan and place in freezer. After about one hour, stir. Stir again after another hour. Freeze until solid. Makes about 3 cups of orange sherbet (or whatever flavor you use).
(Hmmm… I always thought it was called sherbert. Guess I’ve been pronouncing it wrong all these years!)
I discovered my mispronounciation when I looked up this recipe at the Food Network. I found a really yummy looking Red Raspberry Sherbet that’s probaby lower in calories than the orange one I listed above. And I just happen to have some raspberries in my freezer!

School Prep
July 19, 2007 by KellyH.
It’s barely the end of July and already I’m getting things ready for the upcoming school year. Normally I would wait another couple weeks before doing my last-minute prep, but school is right around the corner… literally! The public schools in my community are resuming on August 9th! That’s just 3 weeks away… since my oldest attends the local tech school for programming classes, we usually follow the public school schedule.
I spent time back in May planning for this coming year, and today was the semi-annual teacher’s sale at Mardel’s. I purchased two Milliken books: The Middle Ages and The Renaissance, both from the History of Civilization series.
Now I need to clean off my desk, and get last year’s papers filed away so I can start fresh. And I ONLY have 3 weeks!! Where did the summer go?!
