Kermit was so wrong - it is indeed easy being green and quite cool, actually. The proof is in this Avocado Lime Sorbet!
OK, confession time. I have not been giving my blog the level of attention I once did. A career outside the home and summer will do that. Winter seems to be longer and harsher each year, so when summer rolls in, I take every opportunity for my body to produce and stockpile vitamin D.
Finding the time to develop a recipe, test it, make it, photograph it, edit photos, and blog about it is difficult year-round, but even more so now. When not at work, a computer screen does very little to hold my interest. Focusing on putting a post together hasn't taken priority these days.
Apart from the warm, vitamin-inducing distractions, we seem to be suffering through a bit of an identity crisis, well, the blog is. I Sugar Coat It will celebrate three years next month and, well, we're feeling a little confused, drained, frustrated and stuck. My current blogging platform only adds to the frustration.
I am not ready to pack it in, but I am in need of change. I haven't quite figured out what that change entails. While I sort things through, I continue to create and picture-take, clogging up my drafts folder with unfinished business.
These days my freezer sees more action than my oven. Which leads us to this instalment of Frozen Fridays.
This Avocado Lime Sorbet happened last week along side a guacamole-making marathon. K, loves his avocado and has been buying them in droves and using them up as quickly - smoothies, wraps, salads and... sorbets! And it is vegetarian approved!
Show Kermie how easy it is to be green. Blend, chill, scoop and savour! This one's a definite keeper!
