Today we made white peach & champagne sorbet. (Okay, it is officially a bakery/pastry shop, but we also have coffees and sandwiches and soup and ice cream.) Mondays are our slowest day - it was just pastry chef L & myself in the kitchen. So we blanched and pitted and pureed the peaches, then added a bottle of uber-expensive imported European champagne. After testing, of course, JUST IN CASE. Of something. So we mixed this scrumptious concoction together, but it wasn't very champagne-y. We added half of the second bottle and the sorbet was perfect, but the rest obviously wouldn't keep once opened. DILEMMA.
This dilemma was solved with several very classy plastic shot glasses. Sorbet-making has never seemed quite so entertaining or hilarious before. FUN TIMES YAY.
L is also a bit of a television addict & fangirl, so I've lent her my SPN S1 DVDs. I am REALLY REALLY hoping to convert her so we can talk about the boys all day. :D
