Day 1. Brian fishing for pop tart fish. (at Lake George)
Easy Watermelon Sorbet
This recipe is amazing, just two ingredients : frozen watermelon & water. Actually it’s just one ingredient if you don’t count water as a ingredient. Best part? It’s fast, easy, delicious and totally healthy and without all the usual guilt. Because watermelons are usually sweet by itself, you don’t need to add any sweetners at all.
Besides, no ice cream maker is needed. Now now, you better get going and make this for yourself.
If your watermelon is quite pinkish instead of juicy red, it might not be sweet enough, so omit water and blend in watermelon juice or fresh watermelon slices with the frozen watermelon. Or other sort of fruit juice will be good too :)
You can freeze other fruits as well, one of my favorite combi is blueberries and bananas! Yumm!
Yes please.
My cast iron ebelskiver pan came in the mail last night so this morning I treated myself to some mini vitumbuas. Tastes like heaven!

I was inspired from my friend Villies sweet sticky rice dessert at her graduation party. So i decided to make some rice brownies. These (surprisingly) were amazing first try!!
Ingredients:
Directions:
Zucchini Mini Molten Cakes:
Makes 7 or 8 mini-mason jar cakes
Preheat oven to 350F. Lightly grease 5 mini mason jars (tiny jars) with a piece of parchment paper and a little frozen olive oil.
Pulse then blend first 1 cup of water with all ingredients except millet and amaranth in a food processor until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides and blend again. Add millet and amaranth flour and blend until smooth. Add additional 1/2+ cup water and blend thoroughly. Taste! Add extra tsp cocoa if not chocolatey enough. Add extra water if too thick. Add extra dates if too bitter. The batter should be the texture of thick chocolate pudding.
Carefully spoon cake batter into mini-mason jars and fill each jar 3/4 full. Wipe the edges clean if you get batter on the rims of the jars to avoiding burning. Place mason jars in a DIY bain marie and bake 25 minutes in 350F oven until the top forms a dark crust but the middle is loosely set. They should look risen but not quite baked like a cake. DO NOT OVERBAKE! Serve immediately with a scoop of homemade ice cream (raspberry-port ice cream recipe below) and a tiny raspberry shake.
